Building on strengths is far more effective than focusing on deficits. Our goal is to understand and build on the unique gifts and talents of each person with whom we interact.

Benefits of collaboration include shared learning, diverse thinking, and meaningful buy-in. We believe the outcomes of collaboration far surpass those of speedier and siloed approaches.

Relationships are at the core of our approach. No one operates within a vacuum, so we consider strengthening relationships to be non-negotiable within our work.

Adaptability has assured our longevity. What we’ve learned in 120 years is that no two families are the same. Our team’s unwavering commitment to healing extends well beyond traditional methods, and we routinely welcome new ideas for enhanced services and processes.

It’s a privilege and a responsibility to perform the important work of serving children, teens, and families. Our staff is empowered and passionate, creative and innovative, and always in pursuit of the best possible outcomes for those we serve.

We authentically invest in one another to discover our similarities and differences. Identifying and embracing the value in both is how we foster a culture of belonging and increase our capacity for growth.
