FACT’s vision is a community where ALL children and adults are supported through their challenges, valued for their diversity, and fully included as they choose. Our core value of being Family Driven, supports this vision by using a strengths-based, culturally competent, and non-judgmental model to empower families. While our focus is providing that support to families who have children with disabilities, our mission, vision, and values extend to persons of all ethnicities and cultures. We recognize families may be facing multiple challenges with regard to inequity, racism, and other injustices in addition to those challenges that come with having a child with a disability. We are committed to rejecting discrimination and bias of any form. We promote respect, diversity, inclusion, and justice for all people, but especially those populations who are marginalized. Always, we work to support the family voice and all efforts that break down barriers and create true opportunities for all.
Sincerely,
Heather Lytle
Executive Director
