Mission

THE MISSION OF THE HENRY COUNTY YOUTH SERVICES BUREAU SERVICES BUREAU IS TO PROVIDE COUNSELING TO TROUBLED YOUTH IN HENRY COUNTY, SO THE YOUTH CAN BECOME RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN ACTIONS AND CAN BE ABLE TO FUNCTION IN A SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE MANNER. OUR PRIMARY OBJECTIVE AT YSB IS TO PREVENT YOUTH FROM ENTERING THE JUVENILE JUSTICE SYSTEM. IN TODAY'S HIGH PRESSURED SOCIETY, CHILDREN ARE FACED WITH EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND TROUBLED LIFESTYLES. DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY LIFE IS ON THE INCREASE. OUR GOAL IS TO GET TO THE CHILDREN AND PARENTS WITHIN THESE FAMILIES AND THROUGH YSB COUNSELING PROVIDE POSITIVE ALTERNATIVES TO THIS LIFESTYLE. BY PREVENTING YOUTH FROM ENTERING THE JUVENILE JUSTICE SYSTEM, WE HELP THE CHILD, THE FAMILY AND THE HENRY COUNTY TAXPAYER.
