Our Vision

Sanctuary Village envisions a world in which all people have equitable access to supportive community, safe housing, and resources to meet basic human needs, with the agency to create their best life with dignity and acceptance.

Our Values

At Sanctuary Village the overarching principle of servant leadership, namely the belief and philosophy of putting others first, guides our adoption of the following values, that bind our HEARTS into community:
 

  • Honesty: We strive to always speak truth, act with integrity and authenticity, and encourage the same from our partners. We believe honesty is necessary for healthy decision making and creating trust in community.

  • Empowerment: We exist to make a difference in people’s lives. We acknowledge and seek to expand people’s agency over their lives and decisions. Our impact comes from eliminating barriers and supporting others along their journey.

  • Accountability: We will hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards, we will honor our commitments, and we will strive for excellence in all that we do. 
     

  • Respect: We value and celebrate the unique and diverse talents, experiences, voices, and perspectives of every person and therefore treat all with sensitivity and thoughtfulness.

  • Teamwork: We believe we cannot do this important work alone. We rely on and trust the collective input of our residents, partners, donors, and each other. The capacity and competency that we have when we work together far exceeds what any one has alone.

  • Servant Leadership: We believe leadership requires a service focus.  Power does not exist for its own sake but for the benefit of others. We lead to promote the interests of others before our own.
