Values

The national network has a diversity of perspectives, locations, and expertise that uniquely positions us to increase the impact of each member organization. 

  • Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion - In pursuit of a more just society and through our internal and external actions, we champion fair treatment, access, opportunity, and advancement while at the same time striving to identify and eliminate barriers that have prevented the full participation of all.
  • Collaboration - Shared goals and mutual support lead to greater success than isolated work and individual focus and we know that together we are stronger and can contribute more. 
  • Collective Impact - We believe in an intentional commitment to working together and sharing information for the purpose of solving complex problems and meeting shared goals.
  • Empowerment - We value our members and give them the information and the tools they need to achieve results and develop their capabilities to their fullest potential to excel as leaders of their communities.
  • Innovation - We embrace continuous improvement through the exploration of new knowledge and ideas and seek to instill our work with boldness and creativity.
