Culture and Values
We _see the good_ in people, not only the challenge. We hear the warmth in their voices. We recognize that we all have potential and promise.

Our programs help to tear down the barriers that have impeded our community's most vulnerable citizens and help them to establish a path to a stable and healthy life.


At Good Shepherd, we recognize the inherent value of people living with addiction and their right to quality care and services.

Good Shepherd is committed to integrating Harm Reduction practices into our programs and to prioritizing the rights, dignity, and choices of those who use substances.

By integrating a Harm Reduction framework at Good Shepherd, we can decrease barriers to service and better support some of our community's most marginalized members.
