Values

We believe it is important to do a good job at what we do. Doing something right does not always mean we have to be bigger or better or more recognized. We take pride in providing a quality home where boys can grow and succeed.

Everything we do must be directed at reaching our stated mission. We will not allow our program to be money driven by modifying our mission just because there is money in another direction. We will not change our program due to political or public relation needs.

In every decision we will first ask: “Will this help us provide more opportunity for the children we seek to help?” We will not allow political or financial issues to drive our decision making process.

Integrity will infiltrate every aspect of our ministry including how we treat our children, our staff, our supporters, and anyone touched by Eagle Rock.

We will be good stewards of everything we’re given whether it is in abundance or frugality. We will be good stewards of our money, our time, and our facilities.

We will go the extra mile with our children even when they may not deserve it. We will seek to issue mercy in the same measure as Christ gives mercy to us. The only limits to our mercy toward children will be when mercy is detrimental to the development of good character. This means we will never take the “easy way out” when dealing with troubled boys.

The people who have the most day to day influence on our boys are the people who work directly with them day in and day out. We will place high value and high priority on theses individuals. We see the importance of having quality people in theses positions. We will not treat these individuals as lesser employees. We will not be “top heavy” in our staffing or our allocation of salaries.

This is the single most important thing we give our children. Our children are not objects of our plans and programs. They are real human beings created by God in His image. We will not “run” children through a “program” as if they are our products.

We have nothing to hide.
