embraces the belief that people from different backgrounds can and must
work together and it provides the tools to prepare them for the task.
The program is guided by a set of core values and assumptions:

 

*         People working together can solve problems in a creative way

*         Communities need a diverse perspective to address issues

*         Problem-solving should be inclusive

*         Learning is a life-long activity

*         Working together to solve community issues builds
relationships that benefit the overall health of the community
