CHERISH OUR CHILDREN INC Dating back to its launch in 2021, The Gaining Empowerment in Middle School Program (GEMS) continues to gain momentum, as more schools are requesting our services at their campuses. During FY 2022, we purchased a new social, emotional learning software that is more user friendly. This new software offers our instructors additional resources for better classroom engagement, data assessment and reporting. The GEMS program has successfully and effectively provided social and emotional learning opportunities across 6 campuses, for 72 at-risk students and their families in the Houston Independent School District, Channelview Independent School District and Aldine School District. In addition to providing services to our youth, ancillary information and referral services are also provided to support the families of the participating students.
