Communities In Schools

Communities In Schools of Kalamazoo

Non-profit that supports Kalamazoo Public Schools and the Kalamazoo Promise by providing items needed by student to be successful in academics.

What We Do We connect students to caring adults and community resources that help them overcome the barriers that stand between them and a brighter future.

Our unique model

We believe every student needs and deserves a 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 to peers and their community.

We are embedded in schools to connect students with resources related to basic needs, academic assistance, physical health, social emotional health, after-school and summer programs, and college and career exploration.
