What We Value
People—Lyons Support Services believes that everyone deserves the opportunity to live their best life and be treated with dignity, respect, and fairness in a safe and comfortable environment. We provide community-based support services that empower individuals to thrive.
Diversity—Lyons Support Services promotes an environment of mutual respect for all individuals, regardless of culture, ethnicity, sexuality, color, or creed. By embracing diversity, we enhance the quality of our housing tenancy assistance and the services we provide, which is essential to supporting the growth and inclusion of our members.
Accessibility—Lyons Support Services believes that support and services, including respite care services, should always be accessible and available when our members need them most. We are here to serve with compassion, reliability, and commitment.
And Encourage
Ideas—Lyons Support Services believes that encouraging new ideas fosters growth and success within our community-based support services. We value listening to our members because open communication is essential to delivering high-quality, person-centered services for them and their families.
Growth—Lyons Support Services believes that personal growth is achieved by recognizing one’s strengths and learning from past challenges to improve overall quality of life. We strive to support this growth by providing valuable resources and fostering strong, meaningful connections within each individual’s community, including access to housing tenancy assistance.
Advocacy—Lyons Support Services is committed to ensuring that every member has an advocate. We believe that everyone shares the responsibility to create positive change that benefits those we serve. Our “grassroots” approach to advocacy ensures that care remains effective and responsive from the ground up and the top down, especially when addressing the needs and aspirations of our members, including access to respite care services.
