YMCA AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS NATIONALLY ACCREDITED
18 YMCA Afterschool Programs Receive National Honor

16 YMCA Afterschool Programs have Received National Accreditation from the Council on Accreditation (COA). COA's commitment to maintaining the highest level of standards and quality improvement is designed to identify providers that have set high performance standards for themselves and have made a commitment to their constituents to deliver the highest quality services.

COA accreditation is an objective and reliable verification that provides confidence and support to an after school program's children and youth, parents, staff and community partners. The COA accreditation process involves a detailed review and analysis of both a program's administrative operations and its service delivery practices. All are "measured" against national standards of best practice. These standards emphasize services that are accessible, appropriate, culturally responsive, evidence based, and outcomes-oriented.
