MISSION STATEMENT

HeartLand is committed to Doing Whatever It Takes to cultivate resiliency and wellness in families and to empower them to meet life challenges with strength and confidence. HeartLand strives to be a strong advocate in the community to overcome the stigma associated with living with mental illness and homelessness. We understand that until the basic needs for shelter, food security and safety are met, children and their families have limited emotional stamina available to fully engage in supportive services addressing other needs. HeartLand’s partnership with each individual or family on their journey toward wellness prioritizes secure food and shelter as the basis for meaningful and enduring stability in mental health and wellness goals.

HeartLand has a strong commitment to racial diversity, equity, and inclusion. We seek out a work force that reflects and honors the racial, ethnic and cultural diversity of the clients that we serve. We value the unique perspective and contributions of those with lived experience among our staff. At HeartLand, we celebrate the richness that a diverse staff brings to our organization and take pride in providing an inclusive and supportive environment for our clients and our staff.
