We are excited to announce that ALIVE is nearing completion of the year-long process of attaining accreditation through the Council on Accreditation!

If you’ve heard that getting accredited is a lot of work – you’ve heard correctly! We can now say that achieving accreditation is an impressive feat – it means that an independent entity has thoroughly verified our operations on all levels. This “seal of approval” assures clients, donors, and partners in the community that ALIVE adheres to best practices and highest ethical standards. This rigorous process helps identify gaps, improve efficiency, strengthen governance, and reduce risks. It also ensures that we are committed to continuous improvement.

As part of the process, ALIVE is inviting stakeholders to report any concerns they may have about the agency and our status as an accredited organization. These concerns are completely confidential and go directly to the Council on Accreditation. This step in the process is all about ensuring transparency and stakeholder communication. Stakeholders include:

Persons Served  –  Staff/Interns/Volunteers              Board Members  –  Community Partners

You are invited to report your concerns about ALIVE’s accreditation at https://coa.formassembly.com/232264

Thank you for your participation in this accreditation process to build partner trust, strengthen our credibility, and unlock funding opportunities!
