Core Values & Guiding Principles

Inclusion

We believe in inclusion from the margins - in assisting refugees who have been underserved and face barriers to full participation. 


Dignity

We respect and acknowledge the inherent worth, resilience, and knowledge that exists in each of our former refugee clients. We come beside them offering guidance and tools as they work towards success in their new homeland.

Welcoming

We believe in a shared common humanity, and therefore work to create a welcoming community, built upon interpersonal relationships of mutual respect.

Relationships

We believe and have experienced that building relationships increases tolerance and peace among individuals and the collective. We have more in common than not, and it’s harder to hate up close.


Client-Centered

We believe there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution. We strive to listen to the needs of our clients and assist them in working towards their self-identified goals.
