关于我们
Communities In Schools of Richmond surrounds students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. CIS of Richmond works in 40 schools throughout the City of Richmond and Henrico County. We help kids stay in school by identifying and addressing unmet needs of children and families -- needs that when left unanswered, contribute to the dropout rate. Whether it's eyeglasses, tutoring, or a safe place to be after school, when basic needs are met, students can concentrate on what's really important -- learning. Rather than duplicating services or competing with other youth-serving organizations, CIS of Richmond identifies and mobilizes existing community resources and fosters cooperative partnerships to deliver Five Basics for students and families: CIS of Richmond Five Basics 1) a safe place to learn and grow 2) one-to-one relationship with a caring adult 3) a healthy start and a healthy future 4) a marketable skill upon graduation 5) a chance to give back to peers and community CIS of Richmond targets Richmond's high poverty neighborhoods to make a difference in the lives of our most fragile residents.

The spike in chronic school absenteeism that began in the pandemic’s wake shows no sign of receding. According to recent data from the U.S. Department of Education, 14.7 million U.S. students—more than one in four—were chronically absent in 2021-22. That means they missed 10 percent or more of the school year— almost a full month of classes. This is where CIS comes in.?There are many reasons that may cause a student to not be regularly present at school, and oftentimes these reasons are completely out of our student’s control. Transportation, housing/food insecurities, and mental/physical health to name a few. The CIS model is designed to support students in the classroom and connect families to essential resources and support in the community. Our students cannot thrive if they are not in school, and our Site Coordinators give all of their hearts to make sure our students get where they need to be— in school. Thank you all for?being present?in the fight of bettering our students in RVA + beyond. A gift to CIS ensures our staff can continue the fight against chronic absenteeism, among many other things. We invite you to read a few of our Site Coordinator’s reasons for?being present. #BeingPresentMatters

We are so proud of our Annual Fund Manager, Caroline Day and all of the Leadership Metro Richmond Class of 2024!
During last night's Leadership Metro Richmond Class of 2024 graduation, I took a moment to pause and reflect (thanks to our amazing speaker, Ashley Payne). I reminded myself that life is not linear and that leadership takes many forms. I am incredibly proud of my accomplishments and I am more than excited about the future. I am so grateful for my amazing supporters at Communities In Schools of Richmond who encourage me to be my authentic self as I grow professionally. I can do all things ??

In a few moments our very own Joi will be taking the graduation stage. She will not only be taking the stage, but she will be taking it to receive an advanced diploma with college credits in her bag-- an entire year EARLY. ?? We are so proud of you Joi. Your connection with your site coordinator is what Communities In Schools of Richmond is all about. From the moment your freshman self walked into the CIS office to meet Ms. Mack-Kent and Ms. Chapman (+ now Mr. Vines) you never turned back, and look where it has brought you. ? We hope you bring this the JOY of this moment with you wherever you go. To ODU and beyond. We can't wait to see what the future holds for you, and we are so lucky to know you. Thank you for considering a gift to our #schoolreadinessfund to make sure this magical growth continues for all of our students in RVA. https://lnkd.in/e3YUNiYG Henrico County Public Schools
