We are accredited
We received our second three-year accreditation from CARF in 2017. Accreditation shows that we are providing a quality service that meets international standards, something we are all very proud of! Our 2020 accreditation survey was postponed due to COVID-19 and is rescheduled for the fall/winter of 2021.
