Difficult to say out of a context , do you mean "valor" ??

yes  value related to morals like "respect"

To me, it �s "The value of this month is... " value does not qualify month so I don �t think it can be placed head first

the most accurate answer could be this month�s value with the genetive case since noun phrases of time can be case marked with the genetive.  Ex Yesterday�s lesson. Last night�s ..., etc

What about "The value for this month"....if what you are trying to say is "the value we are going to try and put into practice this month is...."

Lore 77 is correct as I see it.

lore77 and nita551 are both correct, and both wordings work well (assuming that you mean it the way nita551 explained it).
