Youth Employment Services - Y.E.S.
Are you in need of some part-time help? If your answer is yes, then you should look into Youth Employment Services (Y.E.S.) The YES program operates in the fashion of many job bank programs throughout the nation. YES matches middle and high school students seeing work, with employers and homeowners needing assistance. The YES database has over 100 youths seeking employment in such areas of yardwork, snow shoveling, housework, and babysitting. If you are interested in hiring a YES youth, please contact Cheshire Youth Services at 271-6690 or e-mail at cheshire youthservices@cheshirect.org.

A flyer/registration form is attached for students interested in becoming a member of the YES program.
