We are getting serious #MondayMotivation every day of the week from our Programs staff, who are doing front-line work essential to the safety, health, and well-being of youth in our overnight shelter, supportive housing, and daytime resource centre.

This has been a big week for students, and we want to share our gratitude for all their hard work, community leadership, and commitment to helping others.

The students at Hillcrest Junior High School (@hillcrest_mustangs) worked so hard on their @hockeyhelpskids campaign and raised over $10,000 for YESS programs! We celebrated with them in March with a virtual pizza party! We hope we'll be able to see all of you again soon to share our gratitude!

The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 as a pandemic. YESS is deeply concerned that the effects of this virus adds another risk to our staff and our clients who we know are individuals that are among those most vulnerable to health concerns like COVID-19, as some may have compromised immune systems and pre-existing health conditions, along with precarious living situations and urgent basic needs.

We are proactively planning to assist our staff to support our youth, educate and provide the safest environment we can within our control. Our YESS family is among some of the most dedicated and passionate front-line social service providers we know. We will do all that we can to protect them, our clients and our citizens.
While currently we are not aware of any confirmed cases amongst our staff, volunteers, or people who access our services, we are preparing for a variety of possible scenarios.

How are we helping protect the safety of our community? At this time, YESS is implementing the following: - Sharing information with staff, volunteers and people accessing our services on how to prevent and recognize COVID-19 and connect them with appropriate health supports
- Taking extra sanitation measures to clean all surfaces thoroughly and more frequently within our YESS facilities
- Regularly updating and implementing measures under our Health & Safety Manual and Agency Operations Plan
- Under the direction of our Executive team we are empowering our staff with an udpated Pandemic Response Plan to coordinate our actions - Coordinating with partner agencies, government and health authorities to establish a proactive and collective COVID-19 strategy
YESS has been and will continue to carefully monitor and follow the guidance set out by the Public Health Authorities both provincially and federally to facilitate the prevention, early detection and containment of the virus.

In the coming weeks, we recognize that we may need to equip our staff and community members with extra support, supplies and resources. Your continued support and encouragement are greatly appreciated as we navigate this uncertain time.

In light of the Alberta Health Services (AHS) advisory on March 12, 2020, YES Management, working with our Board of Directors, has made the difficult decision to cancel this year's Metamorphosis: YESS Gala for Youth, which was to take place at the Edmonton Convention Center on Friday, April 17, 2020.

This decision was made the immense consideration on our part, but it is the health and safety of our youth, our community partners and sponsors, and our staff that is of the utmost importance. "While we are sad to cancel our favourite event, we stand confident in knowing we are doing the right things in limiting transmission," says Margo Long, President & CEO. "Ultimately, we are responsible for the care of some of our community's most vulnerable, and that takes priority. We are so grateful for our sponsors, partners, staff, and volunteers for all of the work they have put into this even (which was going to be EPIC) and into building awareness and raising funds for YESS. We love you all and we are in this with you." If you would like to support YESS, please consider making a donation on our website: https://yess.org/donate
