​Personal growth

We are called to develop our abilities and talents to the full to realize our potential as individuals.

We are encouraged to grow in love as well as in independence, competence and the ability to make choices. Personal growth occurs best when people live in an atmosphere of trust, security and mutual affection. Core members are helped to set personal goals, to continue to learn and try new activities and to participate in their community. Assistants are encouraged to take responsibility for their personal growth and this is supported through mentoring and daily leadership. We believe that this time for reflection contributes to their quality of life and the quality of life of the core members.
