The Enrichment Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit located in Madison, AL. Founded in 2002 by Dr. Larry Little, The Enrichment Center's focus was on providing quality mental health and relationship counseling to the surrounding community. In 2006 The Enrichment Center became the home to the Enrich & Impact Program (E&I), a prevention and intervention counseling program for students in the schools of our surrounding communities. E&I was specifically designed to meet the needs of students who are suffering and have little or no real access to professional counseling services. The Enrich & Impact plan, program, and curriculum were developed by The Enrichment Center based on a needs assessment from area Children’s Policy Council including representatives from local school systems, juvenile court, mental health providers, and healthcare providers which outlined a need to provide effective prevention services for students at-risk.
Because no student should go without quality mental health counseling, students and their families do not pay for Enrich & Impact services and The Enrichment Center does not bill insurance for reimbursement of services either. We truly are completely not-for-profit, relying the community to help meet the needs of our students & their families. There is currently not another comparable program to Enrich & Impact in the North Alabama area.
Our vision is to have a dedicated E&I counselor in every school in North Alabama. Our mission is to make a difference in the lives of students, their families, and their schools. We are a relationship-driven organization. Our core values are Trust, Investment, & Growth. We believe that by establishing trust and passionately investing in our students we can help them grow into healthy and productive young adults.
