Baca’s vision is a world where forced migrants are welcomed, safe, and have hope to rebuild their lives for a better future.
Mission
Baca supports young forced migrants who arrive as unaccompanied asylum seekers including those that have been trafficked, to rebuild their lives, integrate into a community and use their experience positively. We achieve this by providing a safe and empowering environment and through the use of a holistic and personalised approach.
Core Purpose
The advancement of education and the relief of poverty among forced migrants in the UK and abroad and the promotion of racial harmony, mutual respect and diversity. To invest hope, either directly or indirectly, through our activities into the lives of those for whom we care, consequently seeing those same lives shaped and realising a better future.
Core Values
Baca is committed to seven Core Values which seamlessly underpin our strategic vision, our relationships and our holistic services. Our Values shape our behaviours and forms our culture. We are committed to these values in all our interactions.
We treat everyone as a unique individual. We take time to listen and understand each other’s needs, accepting that everyone’s story is unique. We also recognise the specialist knowledge and skills of other professionals, welcoming their engagement with the young people we care for.
We provide our young people with tools to help them make good life choices and opportunities for them to grow in character and purpose. We believe our young people, with their unique experiences and cultural heritages, have much to contribute to society in the UK.
We seek to be outstanding in our services we deliver and how we deliver our services. Our desire to be excellent does not mean perfection but rather a constant willingness to learn, aiming to be a solution provider, by seeking feedback, adapting and innovating new ways of working to solve problems and meet unmet needs.
We acknowledge the past but focus on the future; we believe everyone can achieve excellence however difficult their circumstances have been. We are always optimistic yet realistic, standing alongside each other through successes, challenges and anxieties we may face.
We seek to serve others. We are dedicated and committed to work above and beyond expectations giving practical expression of the love, care and responsibility we have to each other as human beings, and strive to be humble and accountable in the way we work.
We believe every area of life is interconnected. Therefore, our support model starts with meeting immediate needs and progressing towards the development of relationships, community and belonging to enable personal growth and independence.
We place the young people at the centre of all we do and believe more can be achieved for them by working together. We actively seek opportunities for Baca to add value to other organisations’ work and for partners who can add value to our work.
