Social Emotional Health: We want students to approach people and challenges in healthy ways. How do you learn to pay attention? Solve problems or conflicts with others? Be persistent in the face of frustration? Our students are learning these and other critical life skills thanks to relationships with CIS Site Coordinators.

College and Career Exploration: For students pursuing college, we help decipher the application process, explore scholarship opportunities, tour campuses and conduct mock interviews. For those planning to enter the work force, we help students discover enjoyable, sustainable career paths and connect them to internships, job shadowing opportunities and leadership training courses. For those undecided, our Project Success coordinators provide a safe sounding board to articulate goals and fears, and explore options.

This program is for students at Danville Middle School.

CIS collaborates with schools to connect students and families to tailored community resources, addressing health, behavioral, and family crises. Serving students facing challenges such as poverty, substance abuse, and poor mental health, CIS ensures safe and healthy environments both at school and at home.

Basic Needs: Students aren’t at their best if they are hungry, cold, tired, or don’t have the necessities, like clothing, school supplies or hygiene items. CIS Site Coordinators see to it that students can focus on learning and teachers can focus on teaching.

Academic Assistance: Sometimes students just need a little assistance to lift them to success. We connect students with the extra support they need to succeed.

Healthy Initiatives: Healthier children make better students. It’s hard to focus on math and reading if a student can’t see the blackboard, is suffering from mental health issues, a tooth ache, or absent because of untreated asthma. Addressing health and mental health needs with the help of our community partners keeps students in school, focused, and ready to learn.

Communities In Schools programs surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. Our evidence-based approach, adapted to meet each community’s unique needs, is the basis for our success.

Basic Needs: A student cannot focus in the classroom if he or she is hungry, cold or tired, or cannot see the board. Site coordinators see to it that students' basic needs are met each day.

Enrichment: Our Site coordinators enroll students in a wide variety of after-school and summer programs, field trips and youth conferences to help them gain experience that is essential to meeting college and career goals.

Academic Assistance: Our site coordinators work hard to ensure that students have the resources to progress academically. From providing students with tutors to finding and creating quiet spaces where students can study, we do whatever it takes to create an optimal learning environment for our students.

Life Skills: Through one-on-one workshops, team building, and guest speakers, we work with students to develop social-emotional learning, character education, social skills building, and conflict resolution.

Behavioral Interventions: Many of our students face and overcome difficult obstacles in their lives. However, their survival skills aren’t always effective in the classroom or in the workplace. Our program teaches students positive ways to cope with anger, conflict resolution, and other strategies to keep them focused on school.

Family Engagement: Site coordinators connect families with counselors and social workers to make sure that home is a healthy, nurturing environment where a student can feel safe.
