Our Mission

The mission of Communities In Schools of The Heart of Texas is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.

Our History

The Five CIS Basics

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 community

Our Programs

Campus Programs

We use an evidence-based approach to meet our students' and communities' needs. On all of our partner campuses we place a highly trained social service professional to provide academic, behavioral, attendance, and social support.

Every student that we serve through our core CIS program is assessed and has a personalized service plan created to meet their individual needs.

Our CIS team then walks alongside the students to ensure that they are empowered and on the path towards success.

Workforce Programs

Our Workforce Development program provides career coaching to youth ages 16-24, both in and out of school, to assist them in educational attainment and reaching their post-secondary goals. We accomplish this through academic assistance, GED preparation, career exploration, assistance with entry into post-secondary education, and job placement opportunities.
