Bainbridge Youth Services

Since 1962, Bainbridge Youth Services (BYS) has been supporting the mental health and well-being of local youth and their families through no-cost support, education, and resources. They offer a variety of programs and services that include mental health therapy for youth 13-21 and academic peer tutoring for students of all ages, grades K-12, as well as service, leadership, and work opportunities for youth. 

In addition to the many programs and services that BYS offers to youth, BYS Family Services supports parents and families through facilitated parent peer support groups, parent counseling, the ASKbys Podcast, as well as Parenting Today, a bi-monthly newsletter aimed at providing parents with support, education, and resources on particular topics pertinent to parents.
