Mission

Founded in 1977, Communities In Schools (CIS) is the leading community-based organization helping kids succeed in school and prepare for life. Since the beginning, CIS has championed the connection of needed community resources with schools. By bringing caring adults into the schools to address children's unmet needs, CIS provides the link between educators and the community. The result: teachers are free to teach, and students - many in jeopardy of dropping out - finally have the opportunity to focus on learning. By bringing resources, services, parents, and volunteers into schools, we create a community of caring adults who work hand in hand with educators.
