Agency Overview

 At times,  efforts needed to reunite families require intensive intervention in  order to help family members learn new, more productive ways of relating  to one another and strategies for managing their lives.  If  reunification is not an option, agency staff can assist the youth in  learning basic life skills such as completing school, finding a job, and  keeping healthy.
 

Services to youth include outreach, crisis intervention, stabilization,  emergency shelter, and long-term support and aftercare.  The Youth  Service Bureau's programs are individualized based on need and are  flexible, comprehensive, responsive, have a family focus (where  appropriate) and sets high standards of quality and good management.   These services are supported by the Youth Service Bureau's extensive  years of experience since 1977.
 

In FY2018, the Youth Service Bureau provided services to 1,800 youth and  their family members.  The services provided are proven to be effective  in keeping families together and over 92% of the cases opened had a  positive conclusion at closing.
 

The Youth Service Bureau is a DCFS licensed child welfare agency  #215936-06 that provides services to youth and their family members in  the five counties of Sangamon, Christian, Mason, Menard, and Logan  Counties.   

Our Mission

 The Youth  Service Bureau is a licensed Child Welfare agency that serves the needs  of abused, neglected, homeless and at-risk youth ages 11-24. The mission  of the YSB is to divert these youth from the Juvenile Justice and Child  Welfare systems, thus keeping families intact and children in their  homes. Our mission also includes serving the needs of older adolescent  homeless youth ages 16-24. We do this by helping them to become  independent and self sufficient positive contributing members of our  community.  

Our Vision

It is the vision of the Youth Service  Bureau that all children should have the opportunity to become all that  they want to be regardless of ethnicity or family environment they were  born into. The Youth Service Bureau follows a philosophy that individual  client strengths are the building blocks  for at-risk youth and their  families and through a positive collaborative community process we can   help every child realize their full potential.
