We encourage you to review
Dungarvin's statements of
mission,
and
philosophy.
These statements help us to maintain our focus and direction.
They assist us in keeping our purpose clear and tangible, in the
face of the challenges we encounter each day as a service provider.
Most importantly we insist that each
of our employees adhere to the mission and values of our
organization as they fulfill their day-to-day responsibilities.
Dungarvin's mission and values
apply to every person we serve, including those with significant
behavioral, medical and physical challenges. We believe
all persons faced with the challenges of a disability have the same
rights, and the same basic needs as do other citizens without
disabilities. Dungarvin is committed to principles of
self-determination, self-actualization, and to the preservation of
dignity of each person we serve, regardless of the nature or degree
of their disability.
MISSION:
Dungarvin's mission
is…
…respecting
and responding to the choices of people with developmental
disabilities.

PHILOSOPHY:
We believe each person has his or
her own set of aspirations, goals, strengths, and dreams. We
work closely with each person, and people close to the individual to
discover and understand this unique combination. Utilizing our
experience and expertise, we design and provide a constellation of
services to support the person in achieving his or her life goals.
Dungarvin understands each
person's need for autonomy and self-determination. Where
barriers exist, we believe a responsive service provider must work
creatively to change limiting environments and promote the
individual's decision-making power. We believe each person
should be fully included in his or her community. Each person
must have access to the community's resources and benefits, including
the socially valued roles of being a citizen, neighbor, worker, and
friend. Above all, we believe each person has a right to control
his or her own life and destiny.
All human beings, including people with
developmental disabilities, have the same basic needs for physical
comfort, security, a sense of belonging, love, and fulfillment.
We will provide a unique combination of support, assistance,
education, and encouragement that will enable the person to satisfy
these needs and triumph in the fulfillment of his or her life goals.
As a responsible service provider, we are
committed to offering quality services that are flexible and
responsive to the individuals we support. Dungarvin's fiscal
soundness assures the long-term stability and security every person
needs. Helping people with developmental disabilities achieve
their full potential improves the entire community's quality of life.
Dungarvin is proud to be a part of that process.
