Action STRONGLY supports an inclusionary policy and wants to foster
dialog between the diverse groups and communities in Mariposa. The
Network holds no political position and we desire to support the
whole spectrum of community groups - from those providing
traditional opportunities to those promoting emerging ideas.
Therefore, we embrace all groups and organizations in Mariposa that
can affirm the following ethical guidelines: • To affirm the
dignity and equality of all individuals, • To respect the
environment which we share, • To hold to the rule of law and the
principal of peaceful resolution of conflicts, • To act ethically
(e.g. provide services within one’s scope of competency and one’s
professional code of ethics) • To engage respectfully and listen
thoughtfully (all groups are encouraged to share their practices,
research, tenets or principles upon which their group or
organization is based).
Any individual or organization that attempts to undermine these
values by exploitation, intimidation, harassment, coercion,
unlawful discrimination or by degrading others may be excluded or
