 Core Values
 The core values of an organization are those values we hold which
form the foundation on which we perform work and conduct
ourselves. We have an entire universe of values, but some of them
are so primary, so important to us that through out the changes in
society, government, politics, and technology they are STILL the core
values we will abide by. In an ever-changing world, core values are
constant.
 Core values are not descriptions of the work we do or the strategies
we employ to accomplish our mission. The values underlie our work,
how interact with each other, and which strategies we employ to
fulfill our mission. The core values are the basic elements of how we
go about our work. They are the practices we use (or should be
using) every day in everything we do.
