Our Mission

A 501(c )(3) public charity, the Decency Foundation’s mission is to transcend the ingrained me-first, compete to win values that have failed us by developing the transformative promise of Radical Decency.

Quote Cirecle 2

We humans thrive, not by dominating others and “winning,” but in connection with each other.

Understanding this, the answer to “me first” is to make “we” our priority: a relational way of being that embodies Decency:

Respect, understand, and empathy for others – and for ourselves as well

Understanding, empathy, acceptance and appreciation for the many challenges we all face in life

Fairness and justice in all that we do

And replacing “compete to win” with:

Curiosity and receptivity;

Wisdom and mastery.
