Communities in Schools in Hampton Roads is a national based program that has anchored in several schools to provide services for at risk students. Development Director Linda Dyer explains why the initiative works best when they are established in the elementary and middle schools. This allows the program to devote services to students early in their education. Studies indicate that students who leave High School without graduating are more likely to end up living in poverty than those who finish their education.
