Our mission statement is at the center of everything that we do at People Inc. – it is important to continuously evaluate our mission and vision statements with the goal of focusing on expert supports and quality care for each person receiving our services.

Advocates who receive services met with members of our Senior Leadership Team to explain that the use of the term “individuals” in the mission statement was not person-centric and could have negative connotations, including sounding like a clinical description. The request to change the word “individuals” to “people” in the mission, vision, and value statements was brought to the Board of Directors and approved.

The updated mission statement is as follows: People Inc. exists so that people with disabling conditions or other special needs have the supports they need to participate and succeed in an accepting society.
