people can heal
we are facilitators of the healing process
in valuing diversity and respecting all people
individuals should be free to make their own life choices
each person should have the opportunity to learn and to grow
in creating a safe environment and maintaining confidentiality
services must be accessible to children, adolescents, women and men
inability to pay should not be a barrier to receiving service
in providing support and advocacy for people who have been affected by sexual violence
public education and advocacy are vital for eliminating violence
offenders must take responsibility for violence
teamwork is essential
volunteers are crucial to our agency and provide a link to communities
in working with other agencies to further common goals.
