We consider that:
- all people are of equal value;
- that good relationships and hope are fundamental needs, and that recovery is available to everyone;
- the elements of life which lead to good mental health are universal:
- physical resources such as air, water and food;
- security needs such as safety, warmth, food, clothing, shelter and work;
- social needs such as belonging to family/whanau, having friends and mates;
- spiritual needs including understanding of selves, our place in life, and our access to God if desired;
- plus esteem needs such as recognition for useful tasks and resilience needs based on good understanding of self and one’s ability for self advancement.
