Our mission is to teach youth and young adults ages 14-22 the skills needed to secure and maintain meaningful employment, and to offer programs that help young people improve their employability, career choices and quality of life.

Youth Employment Service (YES) of the Harbor Area, Inc. is a private non-profit agency. Founded by community volunteers who believed that employment and the lessons learned from work were critical for youths’ positive development, YES has served as a bridge between young people seeking employment and the business community seeking capable and enthusiastic young employees – for four decades.
