Project Youth Extension Service (Project YES) is a national internship program designed to meet the unique needs of National Guard and Reserve Component military youth impacted by deployment while simultaneously providing participating interns invaluable training, education, and experiential-learning experiences designed to enhance vocational awareness and career-planning.
Project YES combines the needs of military-connected youth impacted by deployments with college interns looking to deepen their knowledge and gain real-world experience working with youth and teens. Project YES also serves as a career development program. Participating interns are paired with individually matched mentors and complete a tailored, career-broadening project designed to help define, refine, and deepen future career options. Project YES Interns represent over 109 Universities and Colleges! |
Proudly served over 32,097 children and youth in 49 states, 4 US territories and Germany. We look forward to working with more of the tremendous military youth serving their country in their own special ways! |
