What Is YES Day?

 

YES Day brings youth, families, and communities together to raise awareness, strengthen support systems, and turn mental health awareness into action.

​

Hosted by MIKID (Mentoring & Inspiring Kids In Development), the first annual YES Day is a free, family‑friendly event centered on mental health awareness, prevention, creativity, connection, and advocacy. We expect to welcome approximately 500 youth and families from across Arizona—free for all participants.

​

YES Day creates a safe, inclusive space where youth feel supported, connected, and celebrated—while advocacy and community action help transform awareness into meaningful, lasting change.

​

Free registration and donations are available through our event page.
