Our Values

Community means supporting people to establish their lives in the "community", as we know it. The community at large will have an opportunity for shared responsibility in the lives of people we support.

We involve a process of life planning with people on an individual basis;

• Community Integration meaning the full participation of all people in community life. Supporting the self determination, independence, empowerment, integration and inclusion of adults with disabilities in all parts of society.
• All people are heard and respected as individuals and given the strength and opportunities to self advocate for their own care on an individual basis.
• All people have every opportunity for choices of where they work, live, enjoy where it nurtures wellbeing and personal growth; leisure time and retire.
• All people enjoy and exercise all the rights and duties of full citizenship.
• All people have the opportunity to develop meaningful friendships and other naturally supportive relationships in the community.
• All people have the freedom to participate in their communities through political and religious expression.
• All people have access to comfortable and suitable homes that they can call their own.
• All people will be treated with dignity and respect.
• All people live with a sense of security and freedom from harm.
• All people have access to quality health care and adequate income.
• All people will be supported by competent and caring service providers and volunteers, who are committed to quality improvement and accountability.
