The Team Approach
Persons needing care, persons wanting to care, persons coming together in teams to care.

Imagine them all dancing joyfully, moving to music that touches the head, heart, and feet, sharing life together in ways that bless and heal all those who dance.

This is the energy that moves The Support Team Network and all who become involved in Support Team Development. It is a movement that encourages persons to care for one another in ways that bring joy.

The movement is expressed in the five components of an individual team's development – Beginning, Building, Connecting, Caring, and Sustaining.

It is a dance where we first “learn the steps.” It is a dance that we already “know by heart.” It is a dance that brings the learned steps together in meaningful caring.

And whenever this dancing occurs, the dance is definitely sacred.
