Who We Are

The Youngstown Environmental Sustainability Society (YESS) was created in the early 2000’s. However, it really took off in 2005 under the direction of our faculty adviser Dr. Felicia Armstrong. Since 2018, we have been gaining momentum on campus and in the local area. Our group is composed mostly of students in the Environmental Studies major at YSU, however we are always looking for new members from any major or discipline. We encourage anyone who wants to make a difference at YSU to reach out and get involved. We always need helping hands for our projects throughout each school year, and we would love to have you on our fun adventures!
