Our Philosophy
1. All people, regardless of what they have done or what they do, deserve a home.
2. Long-lasting change is more likely to happen in an environment that is as similar to a person’s hopes for permanent housing as possible.
3. Long-lasting change is more likely to happen in a warm, homelike environment rather than an environment based on the medical model.
4. Long-lasting change is largely the result of a person’s belief that they can change, and this belief is encouraged when
the people around them also believe they can change.
5.Sun House staff strive to be non-judgmental, non-confrontational, and non-adversarial.
6.We strive to use people-first language in our written and verbal communication.

8.We assume good intentions lie behind all behavior.
9.We follow best practices and current research.
