The Mission of CIS is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. We also have five core beliefs that every child needs and deserves:

1. A one-on-one relationship with a caring adult
2. A safe place to learn and grow
3. A healthy start and a healthy future
4. A marketable skill to use upon graduation
5. A chance to give back to peers and the community
