Youth Services

Our experienced case management staff is readily available to provide quality services to children and youth. We offer 24-hour crisis intervention and specialized services, including weekly chemical dependency and anger management groups where they are needed. With six offices across the state of Kentucky, two located in Ohio, and one in West Virginia we specialize in providing care for kids in rural settings. Our services are available to kids of all ages. Additionally, Necco provides our clients with the support and nurturance of a proficient, intensively-trained foster home. Necco's commitment to a collaborative effort between state workers and our case management staff is an assurance of higher quality services to clients. We work directly with our state worker colleagues to develop an individualized plan of care for each youth. In addition, we interact closely with each child to assure progress toward these goals. We provide detailed monthly reports that notify workers of the youths' advancement in our program, along with vocational/educational pursuits, biological family contacts and behavioral summaries. At Necco, we work diligently to fulfill our mission of serving and nurturing children in need.
