Our Mission

​The mission of the Youth Empowerment Shelter (YES) is to provide youth in crisis a place of physical and emotional safety while assisting them to build positive relationships and develop their individual potentials.

We Are Back !

WELCOME!  Yes, we have re-opened and are ready for those who are looking for a safe place they can stay - and maybe work out solutions to life's complications - and get on track to pursue your life opportunities. 

MAY 1.
We have re-opened our doors as planned.  We have some new staff and new program components to make for a well-tuned service package.  Just as we've said before you are welcome to stay for a short time (1 or 2 days) or a long time (a few months). You can come and take a break from whatever is going on; or you can come just to talk about what's going on and what options there are. To check in,  just come on in, or come with a  parent or a case worker or an uncle or a therapist or a teacher or a pastor . . .  or you can just bring yourself. 

There are 3 qualifying criteria:
1 - you want to be here
2 - you are a  safe person for our household 
3 - your parent or guardian or whomever says it's okay for you to stay.

WELCOME!

514 E. 9th Street, The Dalles, OR

     If you are under 18 years old and have a need of shelter, or know someone who does, give us a call at
541 993-4279. 

It's totally voluntary - the CHOICE of a youth -
with consent of a guardian
