At YESPhilly, we recognize that academic success is only possible when a young person’s basic needs and emotional well-being are met. Our independently-funded wellness team provides intensive, trauma-informed support that bridges the gap between life’s challenges and graduation.
Our Wellness Team, led by our Program Counselor, provides more than just academic scheduling. We offer individual therapeutic support, positive behavioral intervention, and strategic referrals. Through our extensive nonprofit network, we connect participants with specialized resources for housing, psychiatric care, and parental support.
They strive to support our students emotionally and practically, with resources and partnerships with outside programs. YESPhilly participants can meet with:
