LIVING INTO OUR CORE VALUES
SEEING PEOPLE AS PEOPLE
I see other's needs, wants, and desires as equally valid as my own.
“
When I was young, I always looked at my PeacePlayers mentors and admired them. They instilled in me the values
of teamwork, responsibility, and respecting people as human beings. Those values changed my life.

CULTURE OF COLLABORATION
When faced with conflict with another, I am committed to finding solutions that
meet the needs of both of us.
“
Lessons I have learned from PeacePlayers are teambuilding and leadership; which means that you don’t only focus
on the problem within your perspective but also ‘get out of the box’ to talk to the other person who is feeling the
opposite way that you’re feeling so that you can solve the conflict together.

INSIDE-OUT TRANSFORMATION
To solve the most difficult problems in my life, I first look inward.
PeacePlayers’ greatest demonstration of Inside-Out Transformation is our commitment to DEI
(diversity, equity, and inclusion) in all aspects of our work. We have deepened our collaboration
with VISIONS to create an environment that supports the mental health of our employees and
the youth we engage daily. We have developed a multi-step process that addresses the impacts of
trauma and working with traumatized people, including strategies for trauma-informed self care
and problem solving around these issues.
“
PeacePlayers’ work with VISIONS has enhanced organizational awareness and is in alignment with our core values
of Seeing People as People and Inside-Out Transformation; especially as it pertains to awareness of ourselves and
meeting others where they are at.
