Cross Plains Community Partner awarded a 4-year Accreditation..... 

On May 12, 2006 CPCP was awarded a 4-year accreditation from The Council on Quality and leadership (CQL). 

CQL is a recognized leader for quality of life for people with disabilities. 

CQL measures and evaluates both personal and community quality of life, and requires demonstration of successful operation in assurances for health, safety and welfare. 

Although CPCP had previously been accredited by CQL this was the first time CPCP had experienced a review using CQL’s new process. 

There are only 7 other organizations that have been evaluated using the revised process, of which only three were awarded immediate accreditation, and CPCP is the first in Georgia! 

This is considered a 4- year accreditation partnership with CQL. 

CPCP is excited about a partnership that will assist and challenge them to be even more effective in the pursuit of community presence, leadership, and personal quality of life.  

Congratulations to all the staff and individuals served for this great achievement and for the hard work that that went into preparing for this review. 

  A special thanks is given to those community partners and families that participated in some of the accreditation focus groups and meetings.
