THE POWER OF COMMUNITY

Our unique model centers on having a dedicated, full-time social service professional on every campus we serve. We build relationships with businesses, volunteers, and partners to bring community resources to the school campus. These additional supports allow us to ensure that students get the exact services they need. We serve the following Central Texas school districts: Austin ISD, Del Valle ISD, Elgin ISD, Harmony Public Schools, Hays CISD, Lockhart ISD, Manor ISD, San Marcos CISD and Taylor ISD.
