What is the Youth Services Center for Madison Central High School?
The Center is one of the eleven Family Resource/Youth Services Centers in Madison County and was formally called Richmond Youth Services Center. We have served Madison Central High School since 1991 as a part of the Kentucky Education Reform Act (KERA).

Youth Services for MCHS revolves around the concept of helping ALL students have a safe, healthy, happy and positive educational environment, assuring success in their educational needs and goals.

MCHS Youth Services will help our children and their families by building a positive and trusting relationship with them. We then build on this level of trust and bridge any gaps of services between our students, families, schools and community agencies. Together we can make a positive difference in the lives of our youth.

Who can use the Youth Services Center-MCHS?
The complete title for our Center is ‘Youth Services Center-Madison Central High School/Madison Middle School'. We stand available for all students, parents, faculty and families of Madison Central and Madison Middle.
