We view the people we work with nonjudgmental empathy and acceptance. We believe that change comes from self-motivation and self-efficacy and thus self-determined change is most effective and enduring. We believe that all people despite history and level of challenge are capable of positive behavior change. Miiwrap is a team driven approach
