The resolution recognizes Communities In Schools (CIS) of Texas for its significant contributions to the well-being and academic success of students and their families across the state. Established in 1979, CIS has grown to include 27 affiliates and is the largest provider of school-based behavioral health services in Texas. The organization employs a multitiered support system to combat chronic absenteeism and improve student outcomes, achieving impressive results such as 99% of the 122,000 students served last year remaining in school, 98% being promoted, and 90% showing improved behavior.

In addition to its educational support, CIS provides trauma-informed interventions through trained staff and mental health professionals, enhancing students' emotional well-being and coping skills. The organization effectively leverages state funding with local public and private contributions, providing nearly five dollars in services for every dollar invested by the state. The resolution declares March 4, 2025, as Communities In Schools Day at the Texas State Capitol, honoring the vital role CIS plays in preparing young Texans for successful futures and expressing the Texas House of Representatives' high regard for the organization.
