We provide care that is inclusive, identity-affirming, and responsive to the cultural, relational, and social contexts shaping each person’s life. This includes affirming sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, race, ethnicity, culture, spirituality, neurodiversity, ability status, socioeconomic background, and family structure. We recognize that identity is complex and evolving, and we approach our work with humility, curiosity, and respect for each person’s lived experience. Our commitment to affirming care is supported by ongoing learning, reflection, and accountability.
