How SRfc Operates
-
All action starts with the question, “How Are the Children?”
​
-
We use the 3R’s: Research, Reality Testing (Keeping our Ear to the Ground) and Results Accountability to drive our work.
​​
-
We cultivate a “networked & collaborative culture” that supports innovation and risk taking. We build in networking time at all of our meetings for people to meet and connect with others.
​​

-
We believe community solutions must be flexible and responsive to create ‘pathways of access’ for children, youth and families who are experiencing at risk circumstances in our communities.
-
We use our collective sphere of influence and shared power to address systems change (systems change = ‘changed lives’ and ‘changed circumstances’ (AKA: “Shifting the conditions that are holding the problem in place”).
-
All resources are shared and budgets are highly transparent to cultivate trust.
