• In their own words:

  "CARF accreditation allows us to present to the outside world that our programs and our company have met very stringent quality standards that are recognized internationally. That is definitely something that bodes well when you are presenting yourself to funders, referral sources, and licensure agencies, but also with the people who are looking for services."
