MISSION: To Champion person centered communities where aging adults and their care partners are valued, respected, and honored.

Values: (inspired by and adapted from the Pioneer Network):

• Persons are more important than tasks;

• Spirit is as important as mind and body;

• Growth and development are unending life processes;

• All people are entitled to self-determination wherever they live;

• Relationships are the fundamental building block of a thriving community;

• The individuals engaged in the delivery of support are deserving of appreciation, honor and support by their peers and the larger community;

• Risk taking is a normal part of life.
