| The OUR Center mission is "To unify community resources to help people in the St. Vrain region meet their individual needs and move toward self-sufficiency". The St. Vrain district includes: Dacono, Del Camino, Erie, Firestone, Frederick, Hygiene, Longmont, Lyons, Mead, Niwot, Peaceful Valley, Raymond, Riverside, and other parts of Boulder, Larimer and Weld Counties. |
| OUR Center Code of Ethics |
| It is the intent of the OUR Center to serve without regard to race, color, sex, sexual orientation, age, religion, national origin, marital status, military status, political belief, mental or physical disability or any other preference or personal characteristic, condition or status, always keeping in mind that each person must be respected for who she/he is, and that no person in unworthy of our help. We will keep a strict code of confidentiality, thereby insuring that the reputation and self-esteem of the client is preserved to the best of our ability. The staff shall be aware of and sensitive to the cultures of the clients we serve as well as to their diversity. |
| The OUR Center shall adhere to the highest standards of honesty, integrity, and impartiality in all its dealings with the clients, donors and supporters, and the community at large. |
| Within the limits of resources, we will provide the best quality of assistance, both professional and tangible, that we are able to provide. Care shall be taken to exemplify the rules of common decency and caring. The name OUR Center is not taken lightly. |
| Since we do have limited resources, priority will be given to families with children, especially those who are homeless or who are on the verge of being homeless, but our assistance shall not be limited to those families. The help given by the OUR Center will always be to assist the client toward self-sufficiency while preserving their self-esteem and personhood. |
| Note: The Board of Directors approved OUR Center Code of Ethics on August 15, 2000. All volunteer applicants will be asked to sign an OUR Center Code of Ethics Form upon acceptance into the program. |
