Beliefs

We believe that kids can succeed.

Student Advocacy provides a critical service to young people in our community. We help kids, who are facing significant  obstacles, to get on track to school success. Our work is guided by these beliefs:

• Every person can contribute to society.

• People need to be nourished-body, mind and soul.

• Every person has the right to the means to achieve his/her potential.

• One’s success is not measured against the achievement of others.

• Forgiveness is essential to relationships.

• Without honesty there is no trust.

• True commitment is expressed in action.

• Every person is entitled to live free from fear.

• People are sustained by hope.
