Are specific accrediting bodies identified for the different types of services provided by the Ministry, or do we have a choice?
The Ministry has three approved accrediting bodies: The Council on Accreditation (COA), The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) and The Council on Quality and Leadership (CQL). Service provider organizations may choose which body is most appropriate for their organization, keeping in mind that CQL is available to organizations receiving only CLBC funding.
