We are a Christian response to need in our community. We are not here to judge, we are here to help. We will always do what we can to address people’s needs and provide the momentum for them to move forward in their lives. -
Our people matter
At Equip, we are each part of a bigger picture. We value other roles as much as our own. We will do everything we can to raise each other up to achieve outcomes greater than any of us can imagine. -
If we can say 'yes' we will
We look for solutions not problems. We have a ‘can do’ attitude. When we have to say ‘no’, we will do it respectfully. We are team players. We serve with openness and positivity.
