KIND VALUES
As part of our commitment to our communities, partners, and ourselves we have been reflecting, discussing, and examining what our values are, and how we live them in our work.
Communities Of Care
Kind believes that taking care of each other is a skill that can be learned and re-learned with practice, attention, and support.
Sustainable Growth
Kind knows we all have the capacity to learn and evolve at a pace which is thoughtful, intentional, and realistic.
Creativity
Kind believes in our communities – their knowledge, innovation, and understanding of their needs and how they can and should be met. Our job is to listen, support, and act.
Transparency
Kind is committed to openness and honesty in our governance model, programming, organizational goals, policies, and procedures.
CORE COMMITMENTS
Within each of our values lives 4 core commitments to accessibility, accountability, community participation, and self-determination. We don’t just want to have a list of nice sounding words that sit on a page. These are active, tangible agreements we make about current and future programming and partnerships.
