Our Values
Northwest ABA's mission is to ABLE (achieve better life for everyone) children, families, and professionals who serve them regardless of their disabilities and cultural backgrounds.
Our Values
- Better life for all: Northwest ABA exists to help children and families live better lives. Our clients’ physical, mental, or behavioral health may be affected by disability but their quality of life and that of families does not have to be. Using applied behavior analysis as a tool, we create unforgettable experience and help our clients achieve their unique potential.
- Sharing community and culture: Northwest ABA builds a community and culture in which clients, families, and professionals are all partners, have mutual respect, and share common values and goals.
- Northwest ABA focuses on developing professionals and enhancing their quality of life. We believe that professional growth leads to service excellence and are invested in employee engagement and performance. We care, support, challenge, and develop professionals.
- Northwest ABA believes that exceptional service is built on exceptional people. We hire and develop professionals who live the following values.
- Professionalism: Everyone who works at Northwest ABA are professionals. We think and act as professionals.
- Happiness: We enjoy and take pride in what we do.
- Relentless drive for improvement: We are committed to seeking challenges and improving our competence, services, and processes. There is no end to this process and we all strive to offer better services each day.
- Effective and efficient: We are obsessed with pursuing effectiveness and efficiency.
- Dependability and consistency: We do what we said we will do (dependability) and do it consistently.
- Own responsibility: We take ownership when a problem arises rather than attributing a fault to others or external factors. We believe our ability to overcome challenges rests on whether we can see them as our own issues. A lousy clinician blames other people and situations and defends themselves. A mediocre clinician just takes it and does not say anything. A good clinician engages in problem solving. A stellar clinician prevents problems and turns problems into improvements.
- Problem Solving through Communication: We think communication is always two-ways. Problems are solved through communication, as we give and receive critical/constructive feedback with one another.
- Think others: We think others first and communicate our compassion. Communication means to think how others may interpret your message or behavior, how they may feel, and conveying a message that you care about them.
- Credit and empower: We believe in principles of positive reinforcement and recognize and praise accomplishments of each other.
- Teamwork: We care, support, challenge, nurture, and grow each other to build a strong, cohesive team.
- Embrace differences: We embrace diversity and remain open to ideas and values that are different from our own.
