Commitment
We believe that as a staff we are responsible not only for our own performance to uphold the values and professional standards the SGCC represents, but also to support the success of our peers so that, as a whole, we can advance SGCC’s mission and vision.
Clients First
We believe that each client deserves a personalized treatment plan that connects to their individual needs and preferences and leads them along a path to personal fulfillment.
Engagement
We believe that successful treatment results when families, caregivers and others in a client’s sphere of influence are committed to positive client outcomes and are engaged in the treatment process.
