Our Core Values
- Sense of Hope– We will always possess a sense of hope that our participants can do well and be awesome! We will seek and recognize the potential of all our Journeys Soaring Impact program participants. Believing all students have the same capacity of learning; but different learning styles, we will make every effort to fill knowledge gaps, build their confidence, and never give up on them.
- Community– We are committed to a positive environment in which everyone may experience a sense of belonging and worth. We honor relationships and take responsibility for fostering trust, respect, and good will. We share stories about our heritage, calling, and vulnerabilities. We desire to make a difference in the lives of others while making a living.
- Inclusivity - We strive for excellence and recognize that our differences make us stronger. We respect and seek out inclusion of differences, realizing we can learn from each other. We believe it important to create an environment where each person is encouraged to bring their “full self” to work daily.
- Integrity– We are trustworthy. We are reliable, authentic, and loyal. We do what we say we will do. We have the courage to do the right thing. We welcome accountability and conduct our business with honesty and transparency.
- Respect– We honor the intrinsic dignity, autonomy, and worth of each person. We treat others the way we they want to be treated. We are considerate of each other's feelings, values, and points of view.
