The Madison County Youth Center (MCYC) is a public social service agency dedicated to supporting youth who, for a variety of reasons, have been referred for services through the Madison County Superior Court, Division 2. It is the responsibility of MCYC staff to help empower these children to become confident, productive members of their families and our community. To accomplish this, we work to assist the youth in our care to develop functional behaviors to replace destructive ones. We strive to nurture the individual strengths of each child.

The juveniles are sight and sound monitored at all times. The youth in secure detention are provided opportunities to develop academic and social skills. Staff supervise the daily activities of the residents, implement a behavior management program, and serve as positive role models for youth.
