MISSION STATEMENT
Winter 2012

Good Shepherd Manor's Mission is to serve the needs of men with developmental disabilities who are not capable of earning their own livelihood or meeting their basic needs in a non-structured environment. In doing so, Good Shepherd Manor also seeks to serve the needs of the families of these handicapped residents who, in their great concern for their loved ones, are anxious for their happiness and physical and social well-being, especially when the family will no longer be here to provide for them.
Although Catholic based, Good Shepherd Manor welcomes all faiths and helps residents access services accordingly. Good Shepherd Manor is a not-for-profit, non-political institution which seeks to promote the welfare and dignity of all mankind by showing that all persons, including the developmentally disabled, are made to the image and likeness of God. Aware that the residents with whom we deal have completed the formal education for which they are equipped to assimilate, we now stress to broaden their exposure to life, increase their value to society, elevate their feelings of self-worth and become habilitated, if possible, within the community setting.
