Our Impact
Last year, Communities In Schools® (CIS™) reached
1.61 million students with our supports and essential resources. CIS surrounds students with a community of support so they stay – and succeed – in school.
BUT THERE ARE MORE KIDS WHO STILL NEED SUPPORT
Kids can’t get an education – or graduate and reap the benefits that come from a high school degree – if they’re not in school. Inequitable learning conditions and disparities in chronic absenteeism, drop-out rates, and graduation rates far predate the pandemic.
