Communities Served by CIS of Georgia

Communities In Schools (CIS) of Georgia and all local Communities In Schools organizations in Georgia are part of a National Network building relationships that empower students to stay in school and succeed in life. As a network, we focus on improving student and school success by providing needed support and services to students and schools. Our CIS model of wraparound services for schools and students was validated by a 5-year independent evaluation to result in the strongest reduction in dropout rates of any existing fully scaled dropout prevention program evaluated.

Our national organization, Communities In Schools, Inc., located in Crystal City, Virginia, sets standards for the CIS Model and affiliate operations, providing support and advocacy for the CIS network that reaches students and schools in 25 states and in the District of Columbia.

Communities In Schools (CIS) network in Georgia is comprised of the state CIS organization, Communities In Schools of Georgia (CIS of Georgia), 16 CIS local affiliate organizations and 18 CIS of Georgia subsidiary organizations located throughout the state. Our state office and local CIS affiliates are providing services to students and schools in 45 school districts across 40 counties in Georgia. Communities In Schools of Georgia, local CIS affiliates and CIS of Georgia subsidiaries provide direct support and programs to schools and students.  Affiliates will be serving 217 schools and 2 community-based sites during 2025.
