Counseling In Schools is a community-based organization delivering school-based mental health support to students and their families within New York City’s public schools. Founded in 1986, it aims to identify and reinforce the strengths and resilience of individuals, applying a multiperspective assessment that considers a child’s developmental, social, emotional, and cultural context. The programs are designed to support development and academic success, helping students progress toward more productive roles in their communities.

Its work focuses on young people and families facing challenges in academic achievement and civic engagement. Through its programs, CIS addresses both individual needs and broader community concerns by empowering those involved in youth development, anchored in the idea that caring inspires success. A recent development is the May 2026 partnership with New York Common Pantry to support school communities via a Mobile Food Pantry program, illustrating collaboration beyond counseling. The organization is based in New York City and operates as a mid-sized entity within the mental health care sector.
