Values

Our work is guided by the following values:

We respect the right to self-determination and dignity of people with diverse backgrounds by using person-focused practices.

We carry ethical responsibilities to clients, colleagues, workplaces, and organizations through a transparent decision-making process and accountable practices.

We deliver quality services and learning opportunities to maintain the best interest of clients based on cultural, individual, and community needs. 

With our social justice orientation, we use an equity lens to ensure clients’ equal access to available services in a fair, inclusive, and collaborative way.

We identify clients’ resilient support systems, acknowledge their barriers, and use the language of hope to empower people from a strengths-based perspective.
