Empathy

Empathy is the foundation of our relationships with the people we support, their families, our staff, and one another. We are willing to imagine what someone else is feeling in order to connect with their experiences.

Mutuality

Mutuality requires a two-way relationship that creates community. We are a community of people who are both giving and receiving.
