Our Impact Code
We are dedicated to serving our community through these principles:
- We will embrace every day as a new day
Every day is a new beginning, a new set of challenges, and an opportunity to re-invent ourselves. - We will be just
Everyone has value. Everyone deserves a chance at independence, so everyone will have a clean slate. We will treat everyone equally and fairly. - We will be students
Every experience will make us wiser and better at what we do. We will continually be engaged in learning and use that knowledge to move forward. - We will reside only in the present and future
The world does not stand still, nor will we. We will not resist change—we will be exhilarated by it. The value of the past lies only in what it has taught us. Our greatest treasure is our potential. We are nourished by thinking about what can be done. - We will be innovative
Our participants can make us better if we let them, but we must first understand them. We can find a solution or create one, but if our solution does not make our participants’ lives better, it will not make us better.
- We will never stop questioning
Nothing can be sacred except for our mission. To be challenged is not to be criticized—it is to be invited into the process of innovation. - We will be truthful
We cannot succeed without the trust of our participants and society. - We will be for everyone
To be our participant, people need only the will to be independent. Though we welcome everyone, we will have the courage to accept that not everyone will hear the call, and we will remain true to our mission. - We will be pioneers
We have competitors, not enemies. We are not here to destroy or conquer, we are here to create. We come offering a choice. - We will never be finished
Every participant will have their own hunger for independence and challenges in achieving it. We will be there for them as new then as we are today.
