Mission
The mission of Finding Independence by CPSH is to create long term solutions to the growing lack of affordable, safe, community-based homes for people with disabilities with limited financial resources.
Finding Independence by CPSH empowers individuals with disabilities by advocating, educating, and collaborating to transform their lives. We provide workshops, resource connections, affordable housing options, and future planning, giving families hope and peace of mind that their loved ones will have security beyond their ability to provide it.
Equity Statement
CPSH provides our services and advocates for people with disabilities. At CPSH we work toward all people with disabilities have access to safe, affordable housing of their choice. We seek opportunities collaborate with people of all Races, Colors, Creeds, Religious and National Origins, and Sexual Orientation with and without disabilities to understand and address the lack of safe, affordable housing from all perspectives. We actively work to ensure all are afforded opportunities that they historically have been denied and from which they continue to be excluded. We seek board members that represent the community we serve.
Credo
A right is something no one else has to give you: freedom of speech, association. Theoretically you can have these rights anywhere on earth, unless they are taken away. For people with disabilities regardless of Race, Religion, Skin Color, Gender, Nationality, Sexual Orientation, and the Perspectives of each individual shaped by their experiences, they rely on the government and others to pursue health and happiness. Due to the costs associated with the physical, emotional, functional, and mental health of disability, people with disabilities are more likely to experience discrimination that leads to financial difficulties and social and economic deprivation. Individuals with disabilities and their natural support networks must have access to information to plan the emotional toll and living plan for the person with disabilities. CPSH provides with this.
