Mission Statement
LAN 63 believes in the development of services that focus on the strengths that exist in families and their connections to their community. Our efforts are guided by a strong commitment to the following:
- Co-ordination between agencies, community organizations, and families for the planning and delivery of services. Children and families benefit most when their support network comes together.
- Both the child’s home and community provide the most natural and least restrictive setting for growth and change.
- Parents are key to the success of a child and the LAN seeks their active participation.
- Our families and communities are rich in their differences of culture, race, and religious affiliations. We learn best from families about the supports that they need.
- Children and their families are unique and have the right to have services tailored to their specific needs.
