Our Values

HGTM is guided by a set of core values that shape how we think, design solutions, and engage with the people and communities we serve.

Human Dignity

We believe every person has inherent worth. Housing, stability, and opportunity should never be contingent on perfection or privilege.

Compassion with Accountability

True compassion does not remove expectations—it provides support while honoring responsibility, growth, and personal agency.

Stewardship

Resources—whether financial, human, or environmental—must be used thoughtfully and responsibly. Sustainability and discipline are essential to long-term impact.

Humility

HGTM approaches this work with humility. We recognize that complex challenges require learning, listening, and adaptation—not assumptions or shortcuts.

Gratitude and Faith

HGTM was founded with gratitude to God and a belief that service, compassion, and humility are essential to meaningful change. While our work is inclusive and nonsectarian, this sense of gratitude and purpose informs our commitment to serve others with integrity and care.
