What kinds of services does Butler County Children and Youth Services provide?

Ideally, families are not in need of our services. Oftentimes, people just need to be pointed in the right direction to get help. We can provide contact information to a number of resources that do not require a Children and Youth Services (CYS) investigation or an open CYS case.

In the event that a family does need CYS services, we try to work voluntarily with a family, and can offer:

  • In-home crisis/family preservation services
  • Crisis/Rapid Response Family Meetings
  • Referrals for Family Group Decision Making
  • Parenting education services

There are times we need to seek court intervention before providing services, which may include out of home placement.
