- The individual we serve is not a sample to move towards a predetermined norm, they are uniquely themselves living in a unique context trying to best function in a system designed to meet the needs of the majority of children.
- The supporters are individuals as well working in a system designed to support the majority of children.
- Both individuals and supporters show up the very best version of themselves each and every day.
- Individuals and supporters will do well when they can with their historic contingencies and the current contingencies in their contexts.
- Tracking Workability
- Rules are a helpful starting place and allow for efficiency so long as we are tracking how they are working for the individual, supporters and contexts.

- If we keep breaking a rule, why are we doing something different and should we change the rule?
- Rules are a helpful starting place and allow for efficiency so long as we are tracking how they are working for the individual, supporters and contexts.
