Our Values
A vibrant organization exudes energy and enthusiasm. It has a diverse culture, and its staff work together productively to further the mission, vision, and values as well as to build its potential. With this recognition, we at Child Advocates embrace the following:
We take responsibility for our actions. Adhering to the highest standards of conduct and ethics in all that we do is how we build a reputation as being reliable, open minded and trustworthy.
We can’t do it alone. Leveraging the collective strengths of our volunteers, partners, donors and funders leads to maximum impact and meaningful program, practice and systemic changes.
We impact change by amplifying the lived experience voices of the children, teens and young adults we serve. Building trust is at the forefront of our work and it starts with deep listening and kind dialogue.
We understand the power of belonging. This is evident in our profound respect for each person’s culture and home. Our work centers around accessing enriching environments and learning experiences that feel welcoming, familiar and safe.
We commit to inclusivity in all that we do. Maximizing our effectiveness is contingent on welcoming differences and ensuring our volunteers, staff, board and the work we do embody those differences within a culturally responsive perspective.
We provide what is needed. Our agency strives for each young person in foster care to thrive, understanding that getting there may look different for everyone. From service delivery to advocacy, we take actions so each young person receives the resources that enhance their success.
