We at Good Beginnings of Sullivan County strive to promote the optimal health and development of children and families in our region.

• We believe that the parent-child relationship is the most critical factor in the development of emotional, cognitive, physical and social health of children.
• We believe that the development of a trusting, respectful, genuine caring relationship between parents and those who help them is essential.
• We believe that prevention is better than intervention, and that all families deserve voluntary and timely access to family health and support services.
• We believe that families are the experts about their own lives.
• We welcome parents as partners in the governance of the agency.
• We encourage laughter and joy in our interactions with children and families and with our colleagues.
• We believe that nothing is more important in life than our relationships with each other.
