Youth served in Mississippi
Youth Villages expanded our services outside the state of Tennessee for the first time in 1996 when we opened a Jackson, Miss., office. We’ve since expanded to areas throughout the state.
Youth Villages partners with the Mississippi Division of Medicaid to provide a special program called MYPAC, Mississippi Youth Programs Around the Clock. We also provide YVLifeSet in the state. Emergency and crisis response services are offered to youth and families referred to and participating in Youth Villages’ services.
