PURPOSE

The Values Advocacy Council was formed in 2003 to be a voice for Christian values in public policy matters in Silicon Valley. We work to help elected and non-elected officials to make values based decisions and take values oriented actions.

OUR VALUES ARE SIMPLE AND CLEAR
	We are pro-life
	We encourage the use of adult and umbilical cord stem cells for research
	We believe that God, not man, numbers our days
	We work to preserve traditional marriage between one man and one woman
	We believe that parents are charged by God with the responsibility for raising their children and have the right to make decisions concerning their health and well being
	We believe that parents are responsible for the teaching and training of moral values and understanding of sexuality to their children
	We believe that character and integrity are a necessity in our public, business, and private lives and in the lives of our public officials
	We desire to facilitate Christian service to the least among us by identifying opportunities for service
	We come beside Pastors and Churches to help them equip Christian citizens
