Our Commitments 

Belonging

We are more than healthcare, we are a community of communities--connected through intercultural understanding and respect.  We honor the dignity and value of every human being without judgement. We are dedicated to maintaining a community where you hold the power in your decision-making process as we support you in creating the care plan you want. We strive to uphold an inclusive healthcare environment that maximizes intersectional solidarity and acceptance of all people. 

Integrity & Dignity

We hold sacred your agency.  We follow your preferences for your body.  We listen to you and honor who you are here and now, knowing you are all the things you’ve lived, but are not defined by any one of them.  We show up with devotion to authenticity and seek to earn the trust we ask of you.  Our care is trauma-informed and individualized to your needs.  Our work is dedicated to upholding your human right to a dignified experience in your healthcare.

Transformative Change

We are engaged in transformative change as a continuous process. We consistently use discussion, connection, and compassion to nurture organizational, community, and individual healing. Our commitment is to stay at the table, work to decentralize leadership, rise together, and share the power of the work we do using the “Turning Towards Each Other in Times of Conflict” process.

We move with intention to define these commitments. We have engaged with teachers, community members, DEI Consultants, and each other, to explore and define our commitment to antiracism, particularly in the healthcare field. Out of this work two critical themes rose up:

One:  This work starts on the inside of each of us.

Two: This work is emergent, transformational, and ongoing.  

We are dedicated to rising up healthcare that pays attention, believes, and responds.  Thank you for joining us on this journey.
