YES Nature to Neighborhoods is a nonprofit organization based in Richmond, California, focused on increasing equitable access to outdoor spaces and using nature to develop local leaders who promote community well-being through recreation, environmental education, and advocacy. Its programs for youth, adults, and families aim to deepen participants’ sense of belonging in nature while building leadership skills that enable them to effect positive change in their communities. Serving a broad local audience, the organization addresses barriers to outdoor participation and seeks to empower individuals to act as agents of change for themselves and their families. Over the past 25 years, YES has supported more than 12,000 community members through its leadership pathways and family programming. A notable recent development includes planning and hosting events such as a community festival, YES Fest, reflecting its ongoing efforts to engage residents in nature-based activities. The organization operates within the nonprofit sector and contributes to a network of similar groups concerned with outdoor education, youth development, and conservation advocacy.
