Mission

The mission of Communities In Schools of Houston (CIS) is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. CIS will serve 173 school campuses across Greater Houston during the 2022-2023 school year. We place at least one full-time CIS Student Support Manager (SSM) on each partner campus to deliver comprehensive direct services to students and to provide families with tailored resource referrals. SSMs provide Six Core Services on the school campus: supportive guidance and counseling, academic support, health and human services, college and career readiness, parent and family engagement, and cultural enrichment. Whether a student needs someone to talk to, tutoring, school supplies, or a safe place to live, CIS is there to help. <br><br>
