At Communities In Schools, they work directly inside schools to spot and overcome the roadblocks in their students’ way. They start by collaborating with school districts and schools to understand student and community needs, and they deliver resources tailored to each school community. They go beyond the classroom to work with local businesses, social service agencies, healthcare providers and volunteers, to give every student the confidence to overcome life’s future roadblocks and own their success.

CIS empowers young people to set and meet goals, provide parent engagement and support, and help every child meet their full potential.

"By helping our most vulnerable students stay in school and succeed in life, we are building stronger, healthier and more economically stable communities where every person is capable of reaching their greatest potential."
