 1. PROTECTION AND RECOVERY OF HUMAN RIGHTS FOR NEGLECTED CHILDREN. 

2. Cooperative responsibility by Poder Joven Foundation’s members and the communities served to the mission and vision of the organization so that a positive change is felt within itself. We believe that “Family, society, and government are mutually responsible for the protection and wellbeing of their communities”

3. LOVE AND CARE as the foundation to transform and build lives. 

4. RESPECT each and every individual to its full extent regardless of their beliefs, social condition, level of education, and ideology. Everyone is entitled to a dignifying life and we should provide our best effort to ensure that the children we serve are aware of their dignity, their rights as well as their obligations. We believe that

“We should respect others as much as we respect ourselves”.

5. autonomy to think and act as an individual should be part of every child’s life. We promote the sense of freedom in our children as limited by their responsibilities in society. Autonomy is our core value also as an institution in our effort to guarantee our sustainability. 

6. Solidarity among human beings for a common wellbeing. Solidarity as a product of social justice because everyone has the right to have a dignifying life. Solidarity implies unity against situations of oppression and misery. Solidarity brings change for a better world.
