It is SLG’s philosophy that all individuals have the right to reside in the communities of their choice while being supported to pursue life and professional goals that are personally meaningful and enriching.
Our Cultural Code
We are committed to the ideals of person-focused support.
We are fixated on those who elect to utilize our services, not our competitors.
We strive to continually go above and beyond expectations.
We believe in the importance and the value of teamwork.
We invest in our staff, in our programs, and most importantly in the success of those who choose to utilize our support services.
Our Commitment to Person Focused Support Services
SLG is committed to the concept of person-focused support services.
As such, SLG strives to ensure that each person that we support is an active stakeholder throughout their program development/implementation process. Striving in this manner ensures individual voices are heard and respected, and, that individual preferences and personal goals are consistently met.
SLG also understands that individual support needs have the potential to change over time. To ensure continued support program satisfaction for those who elect to utilize our range of services, SLG has developed an adaptive array of community-based, non-medical, options that are individually tailored to adapt to the specific needs of the people that we support to ensure their independence is maintained no matter the personal circumstance.
