Our purpose is to provide support for marginalized students by addressing inequalities in our society. Students need a caring community that helps them achieve their goals in life. For this to happen, inequalities must be addressed. The Communities In Schools of Washington network exists to build on student strengths and overcome barriers through advocacy, partnerships and one-on-one social/emotional support. Many of the young people we serve are facing challenges both inside and outside the classroom. What sets Communities In Schools apart is the way we coordinate a variety of services supporting the needs of these students. This allows them to come to school ready to learn and succeed.
