Our Values

Sights for Hope carries forward a tradition inspired by Helen Keller nearly a century ago to transform lives throughout Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley and Monroe County. These values – as ratified by our Board of Directors on September 13, 2023 – reflect our attitudes toward our mission, the people we serve, and our stakeholders.

Independence

We champion every individual’s right to control their life and pursue their personal success.

Impact

We advance solutions specifically for the people we serve and challenge ourselves to make our communities stronger.

Dignity

We demonstrate a person-first mindset toward those we serve and honor their strengths.

Character

We listen, pursue all that is possible, carry ourselves with sincerity and humility, and are inclusive without bias.
