A Whole-Community Approach
We consider environmental, cultural, racial, gender, historical, and societal factors in order to serve all community members with compassion, humility, and respect.
Social Justice & Equity
We celebrate differences, acknowledge racism and other forms of systemic and historical oppression, and operate through an equity lens.
Centering Historically Marginalized Voices
We believe that centering and uplifting the voices of those who have historically been marginalized is of utmost importance as we work to co-create a network that centers the needs of those impacted by trauma.
A Trauma-informed Lens
We cultivate emotional, psychological, and physical safety for all community members through education, advocacy, and support.
Inclusive Membership
We foster diversity and inclusion as we co-create a network that is inviting and safe for everyone and where everyone’s voice can be heard.
Cross-Sector Collaboration
We honor partnerships and collaborations with community members and organizations across all systems and sectors.
