Our Statement of Philosophy
We maintain a work environment that fosters personal and professional growth for all employees. Maintaining such an environment is the responsibility of every staff person.

- Strive for mutual understanding of standards for performance expectations and communicate to reinforce that understanding
- Encourage and consider opinions of other employees or members, and invite their participation in decisions that affect their work
- Seek to avoid workplace conflict, and if it occurs, respond fairly and quickly to provide the means to resolve it
- Administer all policies equitably, recognizing that jobs are different but each is important, and that each employee has the right to fair treatment
