Our committment to the health and well-being of the communities we serve is guided by the following principles:

  • Open communication, authenticity, kindness, respect and trust.

  • Embrace equity, inclusivity and diversity for all staff, clients, and communities recognizing and addressing disparities and promoting a culture that celebrates respect, inclusion and belonging for all.

  • Advocating to ensure that the voices of our clients and communities are heard and acted upon.

  • Cultivating continuous quality improvement, where we strive to learn and grow from our experiences.

  • Using data to inform our decisions, leveraging analytics to gain insights into client needs, preferences, and outcomes, and making evidence-based decisions that can improve care delivery and health outcomes.

  • Prioritizing harm reduction approaches to care, minimize negative consequences of substance use, risk-taking behaviors, and other harmful practices while promoting safety and wellbeing.

  • Applying a trauma-informed approach to care by recognizing the impact of past and current experiences on health and well-being.
