How We Support Southern Nevada Students

How CIS Works

As the largest region served by Communities In Schools of Nevada, Southern Nevada is home to Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas and more.

Our mission is to surround students with a community of support, creating an equitable path to education for all students, regardless of race, ZIP code or history of marginalization. By serving more than 70,000 students across 65 schools in Southern Nevada, we’re helping students stay in school and empowering a whole new community of changemakers to do good in the world.
