Guiding Principles

Our Guiding Principles

At EveryMind, our vision is a thriving community fortified by the guiding principles of Partnership, Advocacy, Connection, and Equity (PACE).

We champion a journey to health that acknowledges progress as a paced, continuous effort toward collective resilience.

By fostering deep partnerships, advocating for systemic change, and delivering services that nurture meaningful connection and are guided by a commitment to equity, we are dedicated to creating a foundation where every individual feels supported, valued, and empowered to thrive in a community that grows stronger together, step by step.

PARTNERSHIP

No single entity can shoulder the responsibility of strengthening communities—our power lies in collaboration. EveryMind actively partners with schools, social service organizations, volunteers, businesses and community members to deliver inclusive, accessible services. Together, we synergize our efforts to weave a network of support that can protect and elevate our community’s mental health.

ADVOCACY

We know that strong, supportive systems go hand in hand with mentally healthy individuals and communities. That’s why EveryMind doesn’t just offer services, but also champions change. We educate decision makers and advocate for public policy changes that cultivate healthy communities and support the well-being of every individual.

CONNECTION

At EveryMind, human connection is the heartbeat of our work; the core of every service we provide. We place mental health teams in schools, establish vital community-based support groups, offer on-the-ground case management, and ensure our compassionate 988 lifeline counselors are always within reach. Our efforts focus on nurturing crucial interpersonal connection, ensuring our support becomes an integrated part of daily life for all community members, and building a more resilient, connected society.

EQUITY

EveryMind is rooted in the belief that health begins with addressing foundational needs, which manifest uniquely across different populations. Our commitment to equity is entwined with inclusivity, ensuring that whether it’s energetic youth, dedicated veterans, individuals facing housing challenges, newly arrived immigrants, or families struggling to make ends meet, each receives accessible support tailored to their specific circumstances.
