Our Mission:
To surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.
Bringing Communities of Support to Students
Three accredited affiliates make up our 102 school and community sites network in Michigan. Communities In Schools of Michigan currently serves in 73 of these schools. Our commitment to the students we serve also keeps us focused on results. This work has been informed by more than 45 years of supporting students and school staff.

Support Michigan Students: Donate or Volunteer
Your tax-deductible donation to Communities In Schools of Michigan helps connect students with caring adults, essential resources, and the support they need to stay in school and graduate ready for the future. With one-on-one support, 99% of our students stay in school—but many more need help.
In addition to donating, you can make a meaningful impact by volunteering your time. Whether you're mentoring, tutoring, or supporting events, our volunteers play a vital role in helping students thrive.
