Our People

Our Team

Our team is committed to helping youth and young adults break the cycle of homelessness in Omaha. We address their immediate needs of food, shelter, and safety while providing trauma-informed resources and programs that prepare them for self-sufficiency.

Our Board of Directors

The YES Board of Directors represents a cross-section of our community and has a passion for our organization and those we serve. Our board members work hard to ensure the long term sustainability of the organization and oversee that the funds raised directly benefit those in need.

Our Board of Trustees

The YES Board of Trustees are a group of long-time committed supporters of YES. Some had been on the Board of Directors for quite some time and some are original Founders, but they all have a deep affection for the work we do. They meet bi-annually to hear updates on the happenings at YES and help raise awareness of YES and homeless youth and young adults in Omaha.
