WE BELIEVE THAT:

  • The family is the single most important institution in our society and it should be maintained as a unit.
  • Families need to be empowered to promote self-sufficiency and growth.
  • Each individual has value and deserves dignity “To be all that they can be.”
  • The needs of the total family can be better met through collaboration and mutually reinforcing systems of support.
  • Prevention and intervention are the key to better outcomes and can not occur too soon.
  • Children and their families can be successful when educational, emotional, social, spiritual, and physical needs are met.
