We believe that people can make changes in their lives when they:
- See the need to make changes, have hope that change can occur,
and are willing to take some action.
- Are provided with a safe environment, both physically and emotionally.
- Believe that happiness and success are connected to the quality
of the relationships in their lives.
- Believe that these relationships are not limited to individuals
and families but include relationships to other communities (neighborhoods,
towns, country, and the world).
- Believe that they have something to contribute, see value in making
contributions, and are given opportunities to contribute to something
greater than themselves.
- Live in an environment that encourages responsibility, honesty and
respect.
- Set reasonable and attainable goals.
- Engage in experiences that give meaning to their thoughts, concepts
and goals.
- Practice lessons that have been learned and are able to generalize
them to other situations or environments.
