Mendocino County: The Youth Project

Mendocino County Youth Project, also known as MCYP or “The Youth Project” began in 1974 by the Mendocino County Probation Department, supported by community advocates and local educators seeking solutions for youth who were having difficulty at school, in the community or in the home. MCYP became   autonomous as a joint powers agency in 1992 and is governed by a board of directors with members appointed by the Mendocino County Office of Education, the City of Ukiah, and the Ukiah, Willits, and Fort Bragg school districts.
