About us
Communities In Schools of Nevada (CIS) is the nation’s leading evidence-based stay-in-school organization, serving 110 schools across the state – nearly one in five Title I or high-needs schools. CIS believes every child has potential – regardless of race, zip code or socioeconomic background – but may lack equal opportunity to succeed. In total, CIS of Nevada serves nearly 100,000 students attending 13 schools in Western Nevada, 15 schools in Northeastern Nevada, and 80 schools in Southern Nevada. Nationally, Communities In Schools provides services in more than 3,270 schools in 25 states and the District of Columbia, serving 1.8 million young people and their families every year.

Partnerships = positive changes! 🎨 For the third year in a row, CIS of Western Nevada teamed up with the Nevada Museum of Art and a local artist to create a community mural. CIS students from Hug High School and Sparks High School participated in developing the mural, which can be found in Reno’s Mira Loma Park. A big shout out to Program Director Alexsis Adams for fostering this partnership and experience that empowers students as they develop pride for their community! Thanks to KOLO-TV 8 News Now ABC Morning Break and Katey Roshetko for highlighting this creative community partnership! #AllinforKids #CISNevada Washoe County School District

In the Las Vegas Sun, CIS of Nevada CEO & State Director Tami Hance-Lehr shares how nonprofits and community partners can collaborate to create success. It’s crucial to have partners like Nevada GrantLab that can help identify and secure federal grants to ensure that we can support additional students as we grow into new schools. #AllinforKids #CISNevada #WhateverItTakes https://bit.ly/4cQAVB0
