Communities In Schools of Jacksonville is the leading dropout prevention organization helping kids successfully learn, stay in school and prepare for life. We reach more than 6,600 at-risk students in more than 45 Duval County Schools through mentoring, literacy tutoring, after-school enrichment, case management and scholarships.
Our Mission: To champion the connection of needed community resources with schools to help young people successfully learn, stay in school and prepare for life.
Our Values: Provide a personal one-on-one relationship with a caring adult; a safe place to learn and grow; a healthy start and a healthy future; a marketable skill to use upon graduation and a chance to give back.
There are many more young people in our schools who are close to giving up. They are searching for a future. Together, we can make a difference in their lives. When will we see the last dropout?
