Adaptation Guide

The YES Adaptation Guide is now available for download. The guide was developed to assist organizations and communities in making decisions about selecting, implementing and adapting the Youth Empowerment Solutions (YES) program.  It is designed for individuals who are responsible for choosing, supervising and carrying out youth programs. This guide is intended to be used in conjunction with the Youth Empowerment Solutions Curriculum.  It includes sections on YES core components, assessing readiness to implement YES, determining the need for adaptations, designing adaptations and reflecting on their results.

The guide is available, along with the curriculum and Evaluation Guide, through University of Michigan TechTransfer.
