Mission

Values
The Brown County Human Services Department believes that:
- Consumers are best served within the context of their relationships with family as defined and chosen by them, and that services must focus on the functioning, safety, and well being of families as a whole.
- Consumers must be engaged as full and meaningful partners in all aspects of decision making about their lives and plans of care.
- Plans must be built on a foundation of natural and community supports and have a goal of minimizing the need for formal interventions.
- All consumers and families have strengths that can be used to meet their needs.
- Our regard for consumers and families must be unconditional.
- Services and systems must be collaborative, interactive and flexible, generating solutions to mutually defined needs and goals.
- Service delivery must be team based and rely on the strengths, skills, mutual respect, and creative and flexible resources of both consumers and team members.
- Teams and services must reflect an understanding and acceptance of cultural and lifestyle diversity.
- Service plans must identify agreed upon and shared outcomes.
- Every consumer involved in services is capable of change and can take steps toward reaching his/her full potential.
