As a Family Network we can encourage family to family learning, enhance community relationships, deepen our own relationships, build leadership capacity, create a mentorship between families, create a hub where all communication flows, share resources, create lasting connections with other families as our children age and create new relationships as we help each other.

Shared Beliefs:
Family Networks and family directed groups are dedicated to fostering the strengths, dreams, competencies and enthusiasm of their member families to create inclusive, caring lives for all their members.
Informed, involved and confident families are the most effective agents for social change.
Parents and people with disabilities are an essential source of expertise with respect to their son or daughter, to each other, and to the community as a whole.
Individuals with disabilities are part of the community and as part of the community have valuable gifts and contributions to make.
Individuals with disabilities must be included and must lead in all decisions that affect any part of their lives
All children, regardless of disability, should grow up with families and have enduring lifelong relationships.
