We will lead by example; we will rectify a negative image through public and community outreach. We are a sophisticated community made up of like-minded individuals banded together to help eliminate the negative stigma associated with cannabis. As part of that plan, our institute will practice seven core areas that will establish and differentiate us as leaders.
1. Strengthen our organization by living our ideals and instilling a true duty and responsibility.
2. Recruit and build better leaders by providing a quality experience for all members through leading.
3. Build lifelong relationships by providing all members meaningful experiences and opportunities for involvement and investment.
4. Grow the organization by increasing the size and number of our chapters.
5. Strengthen and leverage our collaborative relationship with the community to support its people and the public development.
6. Leverage technology to effectively fulfill and promote our efforts, educate and communicate with our key constitutes.
7. Provide quality chapter headquarters and a new national headquarters. National Philanthropy: Volunteer work for veterans, both children and adults with disabilities, community service, public awareness, relief aid, etc. In doing so, philanthropy work will shape the public image of High Society and help build the future leaders by teaching humility and service. Abilities
High Society believes in the abilities of all people, and everyone has different abilities. Such abilities are demonstrated by members as they come together in a common goal to serve people with disabilities. It is our goal and responsibility to demonstrate to others the importance of "seeing the person before seeing their disability." Teamwork
High Society recognizes that together, everyone can achieve anything. By including teamwork-oriented events, the impact can be seen in the people of High Society as well as those outside. Empathy
High Society discourages sympathy and encourages empathy. Through interaction with those with disabilities, members may develop the respect and humility for people that are different. Members are encouraged to engage in conversation with people with disabilities just as they should with a friend. People with disabilities want to be understood and are not looking for sympathy. Integrity
High Society requires integrity from all of its members, event participants, and affiliates. Through honesty and responsibility, only then will our goals be reached. The commitment to and passion for our goal is what continually supports the development of leadership in our members.
