Ground Broken at the CIS Center for Student Support
Communities In Schools of Greater Tarrant County (CIS GTC), joined by local leaders, educational partners, and city officials, celebrated the groundbreaking of a new headquarters located in Westworth Village on October 9, 2024. The CIS Center for Student Support will serve as the organization’s main office and a hub of support for CIS school-based staff.
Scheduled to open in fall of 2025, the CIS Center for Student Support will provide a mental health counseling center for student clients and their families, a training and enrichment space for local social workers and the community, and a fresh food pantry in partnership with Texas Health Resources for families experiencing food insecurity, among other key needs.
