Communities In Schools is cost efficient with a proven model.  Our evidence-based approach, adapted to meet each community’s unique needs, and our singular focus on outcomes form the basis for our success.  Independent research has proven that CIS produces the strongest reduction in dropout of any existing fully scaled dropout prevention program. An economic impact study shows that for every dollar invested in CIS, $11.60 is returned to society through a combination of increased tax revenues and savings on social service costs.

When our students succeed, we succeed.  We measure our performance methodically, carefully evaluate all aspects of our programs, and use this knowledge to constantly improve.
