Abstract: The focus of this Capstone is to examine the impact of Youth Services Centers (YSCs) on middle schools and middle school faculty members in Jerrerson County, Kentucky. Presently, Jefferson Count Public Schools (JCPS) has 95 Family Resource and Youth Services Centers (FRYSC) serving the student population comprised in 131 of the school district's schools.
