About Healthy Lifesyles

Adventure for Healthy Choices

YESS Academy Healthy Lifestyles was designed with the mission of reaching youth at a critical developmental period in their lives, and equipping them with the knowledge, tools, and resources to develop healthy life skills. Healthy Lifestyles is a youth substance misuse prevention program focused on educating students about topics relevant in their classrooms and communities.
