2 We believe that: Every person has inherent value. A person’s health does not determine the limit of his/her success. Every person deserves to be safe. Education is a fundamental human right. The strength of a community is the health of its people. Working together optimizes results. Each person deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. Each person is holistically unique. Diversity is an asset. Relationships are based on truth and integrity.
