Communicating

We value what we have to share with one another, the lessons we can learn from one another and the interactions we have with one another and with those we serve on a daily basis.
We demonstrate this value by sharing ideas, interacting with one another in a positive and respectful manner, and by using the various tools of communication provided by the agency to achieve and enhance the agency’s mission.

Learning

We believe that everyone who chooses our services has the ability to become residentially and vocationally independent.
We believe that every person who joins this organization is committed to doing the best job possible.
We believe that every staff person will learn new skills, use new technology, and further their knowledge in ways that will enable the achievement of our mission.
In creating a learning environment, we believe that those who provide services learn as much as those to whom they are provided.
We demonstrate our commitment to learning by supporting choice, taking reasonable risks, sharing what we learn, and supporting one another in making new choices and traveling new paths.

Partnership

We are committed to the concept of working with one another as equal partners.
We will respect the dignity, privacy, and rights of those we support as well as those with whom we work.
We will seek to support the achievements of all consumers and the goals and achievements of all who work here.
We will honor the individuality of everyone that is a part of this organization while working together to achieve the personal goals of those served and the organizational goals of Peak Community Services.
We demonstrate this value by working as equals with those who chose our services.
We demonstrate this value by doing things with the consumers as opposed to doing things for or to them.

Friendship

We believe that the work environment should be one that encourages friendships between those who work here and those who choose our services.
We believe that the most positive and productive work environment is created when friends work together.
By creating an atmosphere of friendship, we believe that differences of opinion can be dealt with in a more positive way as we encourage a diversity of approaches to our daily activities.

It’s the Person

We are a human service business. We are here for the purpose of creating opportunities and supporting success for people with disabilities.
The focus of our organization is on the people who choose our services balanced with good business practices that allow the people served to achieve their goals while the agency thrives and grows.
We put the person before any disability in our language, in our expectations, and in the opportunities we offer.
