Thrive is proud to announce our revised values: Integrity, Collaboration, and Courage. These values are at the heart of everything we do and guide our actions and decisions as we work toward our mission.
Integrity
We model and encourage honesty that embraces respect, trust and accountability for ourselves, service participants and the broader community.
Collaboration
We build bridges to improve outcomes through a strengths-based process fostering adaptability, inclusiveness and innovation.
Courage
We celebrate resilience and advocate with empathy for perseverance and bravery in challenging adversity.
Our agency’s values were developed at an all-staff meeting on September 26th, 2022. We thank all staff for their input with a special note of appreciation to the working group that put the finishing touches on this work. They include Jenny F, Ella M, Analise C, Mike Y, Heather Y, Lorraine K and Holt S.
Our Thrive team acknowledges that our agency stands and works on the unceded Lək̓ʷəŋən territory of the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations. We also acknowledge the five W̱SÁNEĆ communities: W̱JOȽEȽP (Tsartlip), BOḰEĆEN (Pauquachin), SȾÁUTW̱,(Tsawout) W̱SIKEM (Tseycum) and MÁLEXEȽ (Malahat), as well as the Sc'ianew (Beecher Bay), T’Sou-ke, and Pacheedaht Nations and the Spune’laxutth’ (Penelekut) tribe where our work extends. We are committed to acknowledging our relationship with these unceded lands and communities, at staff and Board meetings, and during our hosted events. We encourage the evolving learning and awareness of our staff, Board, and the Thrive community, discovering and striving for meaning and personal connection within each acknowledgement.
