Welcome

Idaho Youth Empowerment Services (YES) Screener

The YES Screener is designed to help identify unmet mental health needs and link families to further assessment and treatment.

It is based on the Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths (CANS) tool the state is now using for assessment and treatment planning in children's mental health, but it is a much shorter tool. Certification on the CANS is not required to use the screener. Early identification of mental health needs, when treated, leads to better outcomes.

For more information call 211 or visit: https://yes.idaho.gov/

If you or someone you know acts in a way that:

  • Puts them at risk of hurting themselves or others, and/or
  • Prevents them from functioning or being able to care for themselves

Please call 988 or text 988 for mental health crisis support. You can also call 911 or go immediately to the the nearest emergency room for evaluation.

If you need help with the screener, visit our Screening Reference Guide or our Contact Us page.
