  RFFR is dedicated to creating a just culture that benefits internal team members and external stakeholders through our collective passion for serving others, solving problems, and saving lives.
  The Mission for RFFR is specifically carried out through "The THREE S's": Serving, Solving, Saving. These three areas are the centerpieces of the organization's efforts to convey our mission. In essence, the Three S's express what RFFR focuses on to accomplish the mission consistently and effectively. An essential element of the Three S's is positional leadership, which is defined as inspiring trust and respect, advocating for personnel and the organization, and acting with high ethical standards.

  Our Core Values are the guiding light for our cultural success. They allow us to carry out our mission and strive for our vision.

RFFR culture is built on trust and respect for one another and the community we serve. We are committed to upholding our organizational core values, the guiding principles for all our actions and behaviors.
  RFFR is a progressive and forward-thinking organization that recognizes these values as associated with a true, healthy, and just culture.
