Independent Living - Youth Emergency Services, Inc.

Independent Living Program: Life skills training, educational services and support

All adolescents receiving services from Youth Emergency Services, Inc. will participate in our Independent Living Program. The degree to which the adolescent participates is based on their individual case. All youth receive day planners and are shown how to use them properly. They are taught basic life skills: general nutrition, sewing, setting short and long term goals, natural highs (having fun without drugs and alcohol), dealing with adversity, conflict resolution, self-respect and values.

Young adults are eligible through age 21 to receive life skills training, educational services, housing assistance, financial, personal and emotional support. An independent living assessment will be given, and areas of improvement will be identified. The individual, along with their independent living case manager, will create a program designed specifically for them.
Please, if you have any questions about the program or need assistance, call our Independent Living Program Coordinator at (307)686-7539.
