INGHAM COUNTY YOUTH CENTER

Ingham County Youth Center is a public school that is part of the Lansing Public School District school district, located in Lansing, MI with about 9 students offering grade levels from 3rd Grade to 12th Grade.

The **Ingham County Youth Center (ICYC)**, located at 700 E. Jolly Rd in Lansing, serves as a specialized educational facility integrated within the juvenile justice system. Operated in partnership with the Lansing School District, the center provides a structured academic environment for youth who are currently detained or placed at the facility. Its primary mission is to ensure that students continue their education despite their temporary residential status, focusing on core curriculum standards and credit recovery to prevent them from falling behind in their academic progress.

The facility functions as a bridge between the juvenile court system and the public school system, emphasizing stability and individualized instruction. By providing certified teachers and a regulated classroom setting, the ICYC aims to support the social-emotional and educational development of its students. The program is designed to prepare youth for a successful transition back into their home school districts or into alternative educational pathways once their time at the center concludes, reflecting the broader goal of educational continuity and rehabilitation.
