We take time to step back and assess our work processes and practices so that we are continuously learning and ensuring that they are a reflection of our values, and that what we do and who we are are in alignment with those values.

INTEGRITY

 

Integrity is a cornerstone of our culture.

Transparency Matters

Transparency and accountability of all kinds and on all levels matter. These values not only reflect our priorities and actions, but also the importance of ethical leadership and engendering and maintaining the trust of our stakeholders and partners. To demonstrate our commitment to financial transparency, our most recent IRS Form 990 can be found here.
