      CIS Site Coordinator

      I worked at the at-risk high school and DAEP for Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD as the CIS Site Coordinator. I conducted individual and group counseling sessions. I partnered with resources and agencies to meet the the needs of the students. I worked on reducing the drop out rate. Many of our students were homeless, pregnant, addicted to drugs, behavioral issues, etc and I provided resources and counseling for these students.
