Business Philosophy

  • We are proud to be a democratically run organization, and use consensus in our meetings.
  • Our board keeps an eye on our financial and legal decisions.
  • No one will be denied services. Our fees are based on trust. We trust our clients to pay what they believe to be fair value for services rendered, within their budgetary constraints.
  • The Living Wage for Each Employee (Including Full Health Care) goal is ambitious, but strives to attract and retain skilled employees and motivate them to devote their skills and energy to the mission. Part of the PCS business philosophy is that employees that don't have financial and health care burdens are greater assets to the organization. We believe that human resource and administration expenses decrease with employee satisfaction and that the overall return on human investment improves.
