About this organization
Mission
The mission of Communities in Schools is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. Through a school-based coordinator, Communities in Schools connects students and their families to critical community resources tailored to local needs. By providing students with a one-on-one relationship with a caring adult, a safe place to learn and grow, a healthy start and future, a marketable skill upon graduation and a chance to give back to peers and community, CIS has become the nation's leading dropout prevention organization and the only one proven to both decrease dropout rates and increase graduation rates.
About
Communities in Schools (CIS) works in schools to coordinate resources and tackle social, emotional, and economic challenges that prevent students from succeeding in school. We believe every individual student achievement adds up to the kind of change that supports schools, strengthens communities, and changes policy to shape the future of education.
