As we wrap up back to school week, we want to give a shout out to our supporters, both locally and nationally, who make our work possible. This year, we are serving more schools than ever before with case management and mental health services. This expansion is, in part, due to a tremendous investment made nationally by the Ballmer Group, as well as the longstanding support from the Tarrant County philanthropic community. Thank you for helping us to surround students with a community of support โฅ

๐โค๏ธ๐ โA great program simply creates the environment for healthy relationships to form between adults and children. Young people thrive when adults care about them on a one-to-one level, and when they also have a sense of belonging to a caring community.โ-Bill Milliken (Founder of Communities In Schools)
