Youth Enlightenment Seminar "YES" Tour 

Every year, the Suffolk County Sheriff's Office opens our doors for thousands of students to take an in-depth tour of both our Riverhead and Yaphank Correctional Facilities. The tours give a realistic, first-hand glimpse into the inner workings of our correctional facilities and what a daily life as a correction officer and justice-involved individuals looks like. YES Tours are a great fit for criminal justice classes or students interested in pursuing a career in the criminal justice field.

Who May Participate:

 

Public and private schools throughout Suffolk County must apply on a lottery basis for the tours in the beginning of the school year. 

 

​

How To Register:

Registration dates will post during the summer and are available on a first-come, first-serve basis.  Schools are allowed to book no more than four (4) tours of forty (40) students per academic school year.  Students must be twelve (12) years or older and accompanied by a school faculty member.
