Because #caringadults Matter

The Alliance for Children & Youth / Communities In Schools of Gaston County is a non – profit organization formed in 1992.  The mission of Communities In Schools is to surround students with a community of support empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. Our agency helps advocate for the youth of Gaston County by coordinating partnerships, incubating critical programs and facilitating activities that positively impact the needs identified as essential to the successful development of our youngest citizens.

The programs we partner with include North Carolina Teen Court, Juvenile Restitution and Community Service, Community Outreach, and Prevent Child Abuse Gaston County. These partnerships allow us a wide variety of tools to help enrich children’s lives and help them grow and learn in a positive environment, so that they mature into responsible young adults.

No Christmas Magic Program This Year

This year the Alliance for Children & Youth Communities In Schools of Gaston County is not operating Christmas Magic. We have enjoyed all the families we have served in past years and hope we brought many Gaston County children a memorable Christmas for the whole family. This year we will be scaling back and hosting families that we currently work with. Our understanding is that Christmas gifts will be available through Hope United, a local nonprofit. You may reach out to them at Hope United Survivor Network 

What Does It Take To Be All In For Kids?

What does it take to build a relationship with a child, to figure out what is really happening with a student? It takes a caring adult to help nurture a relationship that will help a child to grow. Learn how we use relationship building, goal-setting and prevent interventions to help students succeed.
