Chairperson’s Greeting
Dear Friends,
Birmingham Youth Assistance is proud to be celebrating 50
years (1962-2012) of providing dedicated services to the youth
and families in the Birmingham School District.

delinquency, child abuse, and child neglect by providing positive alternatives to children and families through community involvement.” BYA is sponsored by Oakland County Circuit Court
– Family Division, the Birmingham Public School District, the
City of Birmingham, and the Villages of Beverly Hills, Bingham Farms, and Franklin.
For 50 years, BYA has successfully maintained this mission. It has been our commitment and privilege to help strengthen families through community involvement. For
years, BYA has sponsored positive family events such as Breakfast with Santa, the
Kids’ Dog Show, Youth in Service Appreciation, and Touch a Truck. BYA also provides short term counseling, family education programs, school prevention programs,
camp scholarships, and a mentoring program for youth.You will find these events
highlighted in this booklet and more information about the events, programs, and
services that BYA offers can be found on our website.
The sponsors listed in this booklet help BYA carry out our mission of providing positive and supportive activities for youth and families. We hope that you will recognize
and support these organizations and businesses that understand the importance of
youth education and development and family involvement. We would like to thank
our volunteers, businesses, sponsors, and other nonprofit organizations who have
continued to support us during these difficult times. Through their confidence and
commitment to us, we can continue to provide “positive alternatives for children and
their families.”
WE are BYA! YOU are BYA!
Your interest in BYA and your financial support for BYA is very much needed and appreciated. We hope that you will continue to be part of our program and join us as we
celebrate 50 years of providing services to youth and families in our community. If you
would like to become a volunteer, a mentor, or financial contributor, please feel free
to contact me through the Birmingham Youth Assistance office.
Sincerely,
Richard P. Stasys

BYA Caseworker’s
Greeting
Birmingham Youth Assistance is as strong as the communities it encompasses. We are successful because
of you!
BYA was founded on the principal of unity and coordination between various entities; including Oakland
County, Birmingham Public Schools and the municipalities. For 50 years you have supported the mission
to “strengthen youth and familyand reduce the incidence of delinquency, neglect, and abuse through community involvement.” BYA is merely the catalyst for your success.
BYA is a two-pronged program focusing on primary and secondary
prevention. Primary prevention consists of programing efforts such as
Family Education, Shoplifting Prevention, Camp Scholarships, Youth in
Service Appreciation, Breakfast with Santa, The Kid’s Dog Show, and
Touch-a-Truck. Secondary prevention is supported through casework
services. We provide confidential, family focused services to enhance
the lives of those around us. We assist in the identification of potential misgivings through an individualized family assessment process
and connect families with viable resources,in their community, to help
actualize their goals. During this past year, 67 youth were referred to
BYA for various reasons, including; minor in possession, possession
of marijuana, retail fraud, MDOP, and short-term counseling related to
school and family issues.
During times like these, where families have become more stressed
and resources more scarce we continue to trudge through, if only because of you. We appreciate your support in the past and look forward
to what we can realize together in the future. Thank you volunteers,
community sponsors and families……….. YOU ARE BYA!
Sincerely,
Nikki Keller, M.S.
