Our name and our work reflect our purpose: to uphold meaningful values in every aspect of what we do. We are committed to building strong, trust-based relationships and delivering services with integrity, clear communication and compassion.

We strive to create a supportive environment where individuals feel valued, understood, and empowered. We believe that each person has the right to their own choices and our role is to respect those choices while providing guidance, support, and understanding to help them flourish.

Our Vision

We work to foster a community where individuals feel respected, supported and empowered to make choices aligned with their values. We envision a future built on trust, compassion and meaningful relationships. Our integrity guides every interaction so everyone is met with understanding, dignity and purpose.

Our Goal

We walk alongside families and their loved ones, offering compassionate support that empowers them to live with dignity, confidence and hope. We support the whole family and ensure that your loved one with IDD receives the care they deserve while you are fairly compensated for the important work you do.

We partner with you and your family to provide compassionate, professional care in the comfort and safety of home. Our experienced team is here to support your loved one and give you peace of mind.

An Approved DDD Provider
Keeping Values in the Mission, LLC, is an approved DDD Provider agency serving families across all 21 counties of New Jersey.
A Foundation of Experience
We built Keeping Values in the Mission because we saw the gap between policy and practice. Having worked inside this system for over two decades, we know exactly where the challenges lie, and more importantly, how to resolve them. We have the knowledge and dedication to ensure every step is handled timely, correctly and with your loved one as top priority.

Our goal is to replace any stress and confusion with a clear, structured path. We combine a deep understanding of the industry with administrative efficiency and care.
Accountable Partnership
We don’t just advise, we partner with you to execute a plan crafted specifically for you. Our team will be bearing the administrative weight while putting the needs of you and your loved ones first, working to provide the support you need and deserve.
Supporting You Every Step of the Way
Caring for a loved one comes with many responsibilities — and you don't have to do it alone. Our team includes a dedicated psychologist and registered nurse (RN), BSN who provides expert support for both behavioral and medical needs.

We partner with families to better understand each individual and offer personalized guidance, whether it's managing behaviors or addressing health concerns. Our goal is to help your loved one feel safe, supported, and empowered — while giving you peace of mind.
