CORE VALUES


Value of Therapy
We believe that the value of pastoral counseling and psychotherapy is improved upon when used together by a trained therapist. We believe that biblically sound mental health services and programs occur when the practical Christian message of hope and healing is communicated along with knowledge and skills of the behavioral sciences.

Social Justice
We believe that social justice includes a respect for differences among people, and that every person deserves an equal opportunity in life.

Shared Responsibility
We believe individuals, society as a whole, and especially the faith community share in the task of informing the public, eliminating the causes of mental illness, and caring for those who require or want care.

Self-determination
We respect differences among people and the right to make choices based on individual beliefs, and hence, their need to be involved in decisions that affect their lives.

Community Integration

We are committed to removing the barriers that prevent people who suffer with their mental health, from fully participating in the life of the community.

Partnership
Partnership is dependent upon shared values. Accordingly, we are committed to sharing and view participation and partnership as essential to achieving mental health for clients.

Integrity
We believe that our lifestyles and work must be consistent with our shared values and matters of faith, and therefore a matter for promoting public trust and confidence within the EMERGE ministry.

Excellence
We are committed to developing and maintaining the highest possible standards of management and operations, consistent with biblical principles and legislated employment standards.

Accountability
We are guided by our constitution, by-laws, mission, objectives, vision, goals, and values. As a charitable organization, we are committed to using the funds as effectively as possible, and to be open to the highest standards of public scrutiny.

Creativity
We encourage innovative ideas and new ways of doing things that are responsive to the changing culture as well as ongoing organizational changes.
