Four basic principles form the foundation of our management philosophy
& vision
- Together, we must create an environment in
which individuals know their ideas and work are valued equally; and
- An environment in which they know they can
take risk;
- Not uncalculated risk, but allow people to
be creative and solve problems by taking risk within the parameters
of the training, supervision, and support system available;
- And, if a mistake is made, you support the
individual so that both of you learn from that mistake and learn not
to make it again.
Please submit a separate application and/or resume for each position
for which you are interested. Links are provided below for emailing
