“Young Eisner Scholars ("YES") is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with over two decades of education development work in underserved communities in Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago, and rural Appalachian North Carolina. For bright, ambitious students from low-income neighborhoods, a college degree represents a clear path out of the crippling cycle of generational poverty. However, this potential is often stifled by their circumstances: a lack of exposure and access due to financial, educational, and social inequality. YES identifies promising young students from Title I middle schools, and provides them with the essential resources and support necessary to make college and career success attainable goals. We aim for each student to have the opportunity to make choices about their educational and professional pursuits that are not restricted by their socio-economic limitations. YES support is long-term and holistic, meeting the needs of our scholars at every level - academic, socio-emotional, mental & physical health, financial - and beginning in 6th grade and continuing through high school, college, and beyond career placement. At each level, YES works to address the multitude of challenges that historically have prevented low-income students from accessing academic, social, and career opportunities. YES provides the essential academic, social, and cultural preparation necessary for our scholars to overcome the opportunity, achievement, and awareness gaps endemic to their socio-economic status.”
