I want to take a moment to tell you about these five guiding principles of our agency, which are so fundamental to everything we do.
3:37:46
Adopted in spring of twenty twenty four, following a process of deep reflection and with input from across our agency, our core values inform how we relate to each other and to the stakeholders we serve.
3:37:58
These are these core values are commitment, accountability, resilience, excellence, and service, which taken together, as you'll note, spell the word cares.
3:38:08
I'll tell you a little bit about each value now.
3:38:10
Commitment, we're dedicated to the mission at all times.
3:38:14
Accountability, we're responsible to each other and the community.
3:38:18
Resilience, we adapt in the face of adversity.
3:38:21
Excellence, we achieve and maintain the highest quality.
3:38:24
And service, we innovate to meet evolving needs.
3:38:28
Cares represents the essence of who we are and what we do at OCME.

These core values are infused throughout our work and sustain us through the triumphs and the challenges that I'll discuss today.
