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 Circuit Court,

our care to develop functional behaviors to replace destructive ones. We strive to nurture the individual
strengths of each child.
