Our programs have a proven impact in helping students achieve in school and graduate from high school. Both are crucial stepping stones to success in life. This school year, CIS of Chicago will link whole-school support to 239 Chicago Public Schools through a network of community partners, and our work will positively impact 80,000 students. These partners include nonprofits, corporations, individuals, and government agencies.
