Our Values

These are the values that make our task force work! They allow us to partner and effectively serve our community with dignity and respect 

A School Centric Model: The local School is the primary organization to identify the needs of families caught in poverty. 

Partnership: Coordinated community partnerships are the most effective and resourced way to offer long and short term care for their community. 

Servanthood: The basis for all solid partnerships. 

Ease of Access: The resources that we offer should be able to be accessed with the minimum amount of bureaucracy necessary. 

Stewardship: That those who are on the task force take seriously their responsibility to be stewards of our city. 

Accountability: That our financial and organizational systems are frequently monitored to ensure that the highest ethical standards are being adhered to. 

Humility: Because ego breaks partnership. 

Integrity: Without integrity we are unable to effectively meet the needs of our community in a way that honors those we are trying to serve. 

Compassion: Our concern for those in our community is birthed from a heart of care and an understanding that in our society, no one need go without having their most basic needs met.
