Our Vision Framework
Safety
We believe that all people have the right to be safe within a trauma focused network of security and support.
Community
We believe that collaboration with the community is fundamental in supporting and strengthening children and families.
Relationships
Healing occurs when people connect – when they are trusted, valued, respected, and supported through openness, honesty, and collaboration.

Innovation happens through an openness to new ideas and a commitment to utilizing new practices within an evidence-based framework.
