- Youth Empowerment Services (YES) provides mental health care for youths in Idaho by coordinating the services of multiple agencies, including the Department of Health and Welfare, State Department of Education and Idaho Department of Juvenile Correction. On Wednesday's Idaho Matters, we look at efforts to provide mental health aid for youths in need.
