Hopewell Industries, Inc. awarded Three-Year CARF Accreditation
COSHOCTON – CARF International announced that Hopewell Industries, Inc. has been accredited for a period of three years for its Community Employment Services, Community Integration and Organizational Employment. This is the first accreditation that the international accrediting body, CARF, has awarded to Hopewell Industries, Inc.
This accreditation decision represents the highest level of accreditation that can be awarded to an organization and shows the organization’s substantial conformance to the CARF standards. An organization receiving a Three-Year Accreditation has put itself through a rigorous peer review process.
