About
Youth Villages is a national non-profit organization dedicated to providing evidence-based behavioral health and community support services for children, youth, and families across Mississippi. To keep families safely together, their MYPAC program delivers intensive home-based mental health treatment, family therapy, and 24/7 crisis support as an alternative to psychiatric hospitalization. Their Intercept program offers specialized, short-term in-home therapy to address severe behavioral challenges and prevent out-of-home foster or institutional placements. Additionally, the LifeSet program supports young adults aged 17 to 22 aging out of state care by providing dedicated specialists to assist with housing, employment, education, and money management.
