The Youth Crime Prevention and Intervention program is available to Leon County school-age students in both the public and private sector school systems. These programs target at risk youths by providing workshops and group training sessions to address economical, educational, personal, and social issues affecting disadvantaged youths.

Topics covered in these sessions include:
- Social Responsibility /Character Building

- Employability Skills; and
- Community Bridge Building
The YCPI program also offers a training and workshop component for young adults and parents ages 19-35.

The workshops and training sessions address areas to reinforce coping skills amid personal and financial difficulties to facilitate the maintenance of stability for themselves and/or their families:
- Parenting Skills
- Employability Skills
