Reaccredited by COA

The Village Network has been reaccredited by the Council on Accreditation.

COA accreditation attests that an organization meets the highest national standards and is delivering the best quality services to the community it serves.

The COA accreditation process involves in-depth examinations of the organization's compliance with best practice standards. The process includes a review of organizational standards including human resources, financial and risk management and continuous quality improvement as well as thirty-nine service standards. The service standards address a full array of child, family and behavioral healthcare services including financial and debt management, employee assistance program, mental health counseling, substance abuse treatment, foster care, health service areas and a host of other service areas.

COA is an international, independent, not-for-profit accrediting body that was incorporated as a separate legal entity in August 1977, as an accrediting body of social and behavioral healthcare services. COA's mission "promotes best practice standards; champions quality services for children, youth and families; and advocates for the value of accreditation."
