关于我们
In recent years, isolation has become a common theme we have observed among our youth. Ironically, in a world that seems so highly connected via the internet and social media, the reality is today’s youth feel alone. They feel a personal disconnect from their family, peers, teachers and other adult influences.
At Just Say YES, our philosophy is, “A connected student is a protected student.” Since our founding in 2002, we have made it our mission to create life-changing connections with students of all ages, backgrounds and circumstances in order to help them achieve better and brighter futures. We do this by providing social-emotional learning opportunities via three-types of programming: High-Impact Student Assemblies; Peer-to-Peer Mentoring; Adult Influence Education (Staff Development and Parent Programs).
Over 1 million students, educators and parents in the U.S. have been impacted by Just Say YES programming.
Together, we can make the impossible, possible for kids in need of positive voices, messages and mentorship.

We are proud to recognize John Engel as the recipient of the 2025 Keith Davis U-Turn Award at the YES Celebration on April 10, 2025! John is the Principal of Southwest High School in Fort Worth ISD and a dedicated educator with over 28 years of service—all within Fort Worth ISD. Beyond his leadership in education, John is a longstanding advocate of YES programs, especially the YES Peer-to-Peer Mentoring Program. His deep belief in the power of mentorship is reflected in his own words: "Working at a Title I inner-city public school, I know what my students go home to every night. And to know that the kids in this program will make it because of this experience, I don't know if you can put a dollar amount on that value. It's life-changing." We are honored to celebrate John and his unwavering commitment to students! Don’t miss this unforgettable evening! Tables are going fast!
