Our values

our valuesIt is from our values that our actions spring. Our primary values are:

  • Processes should be empowering for the person who experiences mental health and emotional challenges.
  • Mutuality, reciprocity and respect should be encouraged in relationships.
  • We are all vulnerable and have disabilities to some degree.
  • The giftedness of each person should be recognised.
  • Each person is to be treated as a unique individual.
  • Decisions and opportunities affecting people’s lives will be made with them.
  • Communities grow healthier when new and different people are included.
 

“It’s been an invaluable experience. Hearing the person's story and then having some pretty open discussion about how our lives can be different has given me hope”.
