Where CIS Students Go, Communities Grow

When April lost both of her parents in high school, CIS became a source of stability and strength during the most difficult chapter of her life.

Today, April is a business owner, an esthetics instructor at a community college, and a mentor to young women in her community.

Her journey reminds us that when we support students today, we’re investing in the adults who will shape our communities tomorrow.
