May 2022
May Is Mental Health Awareness Month
CIS Chief Clinical Officer, Dr. Summer Rose was recently published in Newsweek, where she emphasizes how we as a community can improve the mental health of black women, eradicating racial and gender-based trauma in the workplace. Mental Health Awareness Month continues through May, and we are honored to bring you her nationally published piece.

Congratulations To The Class of 2022!
We are so proud of our upcoming 2022 graduates, who have demonstrated that nothing will hold them back from achieving success!
