Our Service Principles
The Human Services Plan is supported through service principles that guide staff work behaviours.
They reflect the specific nature of work undertaken by staff in the Human Services Department.
In our work, we:
- Value the diversity of Peel Region and believe that supports and services must be offered in an inclusive and sensitive manner.
- Believe that people have a right to early learning, childcare, financial, employment and social housing supports that enhance their quality of life.
- Encourage informed participation by clients in making decisions about their future well-being.
- Believe that an important part of our service is performed in collaboration within the Department, with community partners, other Regional departments and other orders of government.
- Believe that our experience, competence and the commitment of our employees are our most valuable resources.
- Strive to be creative and flexible in meeting the needs of our clients.
- Foster a culture of continuous improvement and integration.
