It seems like just yesterday when we were welcoming our first Project YES interns!   Thirteen years later, we're proud to have worked with 198 tremendous young professionals and extremely proud of their vast accomplishments.  Here are just a few of our Project YES alumni!  Please take a few minutes to see if you recognize anyone and read about their experiences!

"The learning around critical thinking, youth development, and leadership! We learned so much about communicating with persons in positions of power, managing stress, and helping youth communicate through difficult situations. I use all of these skills every day in work and in life. I have so many favorite memories. One was going to Germany with Myra, Cam, JC, and Temberly -- we're all horrible at whitewater rafting."
