Our Guiding Values
- We believe people have the capacity to develop creative and fulfilling lives through their own actions and beliefs.
- We believe healthy people are more effective workers, family and community members.
- We believe the best way to encourage individuals to make healthy decisions is to create an environment in which they can motivate themselves.
- We believe the process is just as important as the outcomes and we aim to engage every employee in designing and sustaining our community initiatives.
