HELPING THE YOUNGEST CLIENTS THRIVE
Success starts at birth for families in YES’ Early Childhood Mental Health Program
What the research says:• Using standardized assessment tools, parents and caregivers
report that PCIT improves their child’s overall behavior.
• PCIT has demonstrated success in reducing parenting stress, and even depression.
• Studies show that PFR increases parent/caregiver knowledge of a child’s developmental, social and emotional needs and significantly improves a child’s social ability.

MISSION
Youth Eastside Services (YES) is a lifeline for kids and families coping with challenges such as emotional distress, substance abuse and violence. Through intervention, outreach and prevention, YES builds confidence and responsibility, strengthens family relationships, and advocates for a safer community that cares for its youth.
WHAT WE DO
Youth Eastside Services (YES) provides mental health counseling, substance abuse treatment, psychiatric service, and education and prevention services for youth and families in East King County.

For Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson and his wife, June, family comes first. As residents of the area for more than two decades, they’ve put down deep roots that keep them committed to their community. Since 1999, that commitment has included supporting Youth Eastside Services.
The Johnsons first learned about YES from Executive Director Patti Skelton-McGougan, who they met through a mutual friend. As they got closer to the organization, Kevin says that he and June came to understand the value of the expertise and resources that YES offers to young people who are struggling — especially when it comes to dealing with serious issues like substance abuse, bullying, family challenges and more.
“When we’ve attended events and heard stories [from YES clients], it opens your eyes to the reality of what happens. It’s easy to go through life and not be aware of the struggles that others are going through,” Kevin says. “It’s an important thing to have YES in our community. That’s why June and I have been strong supporters.”
Their concern for young people has kept them involved with YES for almost 20 years — and it’s become a family endeavor: Their son Michael serves on the YES Ambassadors, a group of young professionals whose activities support YES’ mission and programs.
“Our entire family shares the view that serving others and helping people is important,” June says. “We have a lot of respect for YES.”
In a small room, next to a table piled with figurines, colored blocks and other small toys, Lisa sits on the floor next to her three-year-old daughter, Anya.*
“OK, this is our special time,” Lisa says to Anya. “You can play with any of the toys on this table.”
Anya promptly reaches out and grabs two blocks, stacking them one on top of the other.
“You’re stacking blocks!,” Lisa says.
In the background, Jackie Bui, YES’ director of education and prevention services, quietly validates Lisa’s response:
“Good job describing what she’s doing.”
Anya plucks two more blocks from the table, and places them on top of the first two.
“It’s a tower now!,” Anya says proudly.
Lisa hesitates, and Bui prompts her: “Reflect what she’s saying.”
Lisa leans in to her daughter, and says encouragingly, “Yes, you built a tower!”
This live-coached parent-child interaction is a form of play therapy that the trio has been working on for weeks.
Lisa is learning PRIDE skills — or how to praise, reflect, imitate, describe and enjoy interactions with her daughter. The skills are helping the two develop a more loving, nurturing bond — and at home, Lisa has noticed a shift in Anya’s behavior.
Anya is showing less aggression, and is listening and complying more. Lisa is approaching Anya’s typical childhood misbehaviors with clearer instructions, consistent consequences and compassion. What was once carefully scripted is gradually becoming more natural.
This is the power of YES’ newly launched Early Childhood Mental Health Program, which includes research-backed therapies such as Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and Promoting First Relationships (PFR). The models are shown to be effective in helping parents understand and regulate their child’s behavior, build a strong and stable relationship with their child, ensure that their child is meeting key developmental milestones and more.
YES hopes to enroll more families in these therapies now that the pilot has concluded.

THANK YOU FOR
Investing in YouthWith your help, we raised more than $650,000 at this year’s Invest in Youth Breakfast to
help Eastside families heal from devastating issues such as depression, substance abuse, trauma and more.
More than 1,000 generous attendees came out on March 22 to hear inspiring stories from youth who have overcome obstacles — and to enjoy the company of other philanthropists and community leaders.
Featured speakers included renowned early childhood researcher Dr. Patricia Kuhl, retired KING 5 TV news anchor Dennis Bounds, Warm 106.9 radio personality and mental health advocate Shellie Hart, local restaurateurs and community advocates John and Debbie Howie, plus youth speakers from YES.
The funds raised will support low/no-cost mental health care and substance abuse treatment for families in need — as well as education and prevention services.

HONORING
School Partners Lake Washington and Bellevue school districts were honored at YES’ Annual Meeting for their commitment to student well-being. In partnership with administration and staff, YES provides on-site mental health, substance abuse treatment, and other forms of social-emotional support and interventions at more than 60 schools across the districts.
PREVENTING YOUTH AND FAMILY HOMELESSNESS
Families on the edge get help from YES
An unexpected expense. An illness. A job loss. Life can be uncertain, and for hard-working families with limited resources, these uncertainties can mean the difference between making rent — or being forced to seek emergency shelter.
Now, with funding from King County’s Best Starts for Kids, YES is addressing homelessness at its most critical stage — before it begins.
YES’ Youth and Family Homelessness Prevention Initiative helps families on the edge with flexible funding to prevent homelessness, as well as support and resources to maintain or obtain permanent housing — and to address the causes of housing instability.
The initiative is already impacting local lives: From January to March 2017, YES helped 18 families avoid homelessness.
Learn more about YES’ other education and prevention programs: www.youtheastsideservices.org/healthy-communities
King County’s 2016 One Night Count found nearly 3,000 homeless families with children residing in emergency shelters or transitional housing.
YOUNG PEOPLE ON THE MOVEMeet the YES youth who were honored for their incredible progress at the agency’s Annual Meeting in May.
XanderWhen Xander first came to YES, he was overwhelmed with anxious thoughts about his future, and had trouble making friends. But with the help of therapist Justin Daigneault, Xander’s path changed.
Through his consistent efforts in his counseling sessions, Xander learned to restructure his anxious thoughts and worries. He’s made new friends and improved communication with his parents. He’s feeling more self-confident, and understands himself better after applying effort to self-exploration in counseling.
BejaBeja’s struggles with drugs and alcohol began when she was just 13 years old. Despite repeated attempts to change her habits and get clean, she didn’t know how to cope with stress without getting high, so she continued using. Then she found YES.
Since beginning substance abuse treatment with therapist Erica Rosenthal, Beja has shifted her perception of her drug usage. She understands why she uses, and values being sober. Despite challenges and obstacles, she makes her counseling appointments a priority, and continues to do the hard work of staying clean.
Beja has been sober now for five months, and continues to make huge strides.

YES is helping vulnerable kids and their families thrive.
Dear Friends:Thank you for making 2016 yet another remarkable year for Youth Eastside
Services. We are so grateful to our many generous partners who are helping
YES to build a lasting legacy of health and wellness in our community.
As a leading regional youth and family
behavioral health care provider in East
King County, our ongoing goal is to help
vulnerable kids and families through some
of the worst moments of their lives, and to
serve all families regardless of their ability to
pay. In 2016, YES reached even more families
with newly expanded services for parents of
young children with behavioral issues — to
strengthen the child-parent relationship and
ensure a great start in life.
In this report, you will read of the challenges
thousands of kids and families face, and how
YES met them with evidence-based services
and programs delivered by professional and
compassionate staff. You’ve done so much
to advance these efforts by wholeheartedly
supporting YES’ critical work so that,
together, we can create positive change
for families through hope, healing and recovery.
Your generosity makes everything YES does possible. Thank you for believing
in our mission and bringing it to life every day.
Sincerely,
Diane Adam Patti Skelton-McGougan
President, YES Board of Trustees YES Executive Director

“It used to be when people would ask me, ‘What do you think you’re going to do
in your future?,’ I’d say, ‘I have no idea,’ because I honestly … didn’t think I was going to live that long. Now when people ask, ‘What are you going to do with your future?,’ I say, ‘I have no idea, but I know I’m going to be there.’”
