Vision
All children should encounter a world of opportunity. A world where they can reach their full potential and lead happy, healthy, and fulfilling lives. But often, circumstances beyond their control intervene, and they find themselves in situations that challenge their ability to achieve. Poverty, housing instability, physical or mental illness, parental abuse and neglect, and abandonment are some of the severe challenges facing children throughout our communities.
Our communities’ future—our social and economic vitality—depends upon all children having the resources and support they need to build strong minds and bodies. When, together, we ensure that everyone can fully contribute to our society, we all benefit. Maximizing the potential of each and every one of our neighbors ensures that our communities remain vibrant places to live.
Values
- We believe that children and families thrive in a safe and nurturing environment tailored to help them rebuild their emotional and physical well-being.
- We believe that children and families are more likely to reach their full potential if they have the opportunity to participate actively in their planning and treatment.
- We believe that it is our responsibility to create an environment which nurtures the inherent gifts and talents of children and their families.
- We believe that all children and families are capable of learning and changing when they have the tools and support to make healthy choices.
- We believe that the diversity of the children and families, we serve, and our staff and volunteers enriches and strengthens our ability to build well-being for everyone.
