Our Mission
Our mission is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.
Who We Are
Who We Are
Communities In Schools (CIS) of Southeast Harris and Brazoria County is a combination of two 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations. CIS provides exemplary services that empower students to successfully learn, stay in school and achieve in life. Our primary focus is to provide students with the necessary resources, tools and real-world skills that give them the opportunity to be successful in school and beyond the classroom.
What We Do
Communities In Schools Southeast Harris and Brazoria County offers programs during the day and after school that partner with school districts, educators, parents and community partners to identify barriers to success and address the students’ needs. Once the needs are identified, CIS customizes support for students and families providing individual case management services while engaging the community as part of this process. CIS reviews individual academics, behavior, attendance and tracks education outcomes for all students served.
What We Believe
We believe that every child needs and deserves:
- A personal one-on-one relationship with a caring adult
- A safe place to learn and grow
- A healthy start and a healthy future
- A marketable skill to use upon graduation
- A chance to give back to peers and the community
Our Commitment to Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI)
Communities In Schools of Southeast Harris and Brazoria County believe that transformative relationships are key to unlocking a student’s potential. We will succeed by including in our strategies, ingraining in our culture, and reflecting in our behaviors, principles, and practices of diversity, equity, and inclusion. As a result, we break down immediate and systemic barriers to create and sustain equitable outcomes
