In concert with several local restaurants and donors, the Mobile Pantry® provides pantry staples, cooked food and food education to help promote a sufficient and healthy lifestyle for our students and their communities.
Casey's Closet® takes a unique approach at providing clothing for our students and their communities. Teamed with several local stylists, we combine new and gently used clothing to create wardrobes that our recipients can be proud of.
The primary focus of YEIA U® is to provide a straight path for potential educators and administrators to follow. However, YEIA U® is proud to present the addition of several other career paths to our HotTrak® Curriculums.
Supportive communities provide the first line of support for our students.
Healthy lifestyles are a key conduit of well-balanced lives for our students.
Proper life skills help equip our students with the knowledge and insight necessary for success.
Family mentoring promotes healthy home environment for students.
Educational mentoring creates a long range plan conducive to academic success.
Social mentoring provides students with the skills to master social competency.

"In a world where everyone seems to ignore the needs of the student, YEIA magically wraps their arms around education through the community in a cocoon that supports the children."
"One of the best parts of being a Pillar is being a part of trustworthy relationship with the community. As a Pillar, we are supporters, advocates and allies to education at its best."
"My advice to other Pillars is to forget everything that you have learned prior to YEIA, have fun, learn from the youth, enjoy the experience and repeat indefinitely."
