Corporate Social Responsibility Accreditation
The agency I work for is accredited through the American Correctional Association. Accreditation promotes improvement in the management of correctional agencies through the administration of a voluntary accreditation program and the ongoing development and revision of relevant, useful standards.
- Project Orientated: Staff prepared for ACA Audit for 6 Months.
- Quality Orientated: ACA renewal is every 3 years, Prison Rape Elimination Act brought new changes this review.
- Strategic: Information Sharing between institutions is enhanced, ie, lessons learned.
- Transformational: We are always moving from Good to Great, the triennial review aids in renewing employee awareness to laws and our corresponding responsibilities with implementation.
The ACA is a private entity, and enables our organization to assure the public that we are in compliance with all ACA standards and practices.
