“CIS has helped me tremendously. It allows me to take the time I need to do the work I need to do and the work I don’t have time to do. It allows me to allow personal and school growth and focus on what is important for me to improve and do better in the years leading up to graduate. Being in CIS also allows me to have someone advocating for me in the school setting and keep me on track so I can achieve my full potential. It also allows me to be the person I really am and express myself without judgment and talk about the things I can’t or won’t talk about with other people, essentially becoming a safe place for me to go.”
