The Presbyterian Home for Children leadership team is nearing the finish line in the process of earning renewal of the prestigious Educational Assessment Guidelines Leading toward Excellence EAGLE Accreditation in 2025.
Staff started during 2024 and has completed and submitted the challenging documentation portion required to maintain EAGLE accreditation, which is the highest standard for a faith-based organization serving children, youth and families to accomplish. We have been accredited by EAGLE since 2017.
Now the team prepares to show an EAGLE National Accreditation Review Team that we practice what we say we do in that paperwork.
In the visit that will take place on our campus September 14-18, the EAGLE team will review our programs for children and families, our facilities and how the Home operates, and how the Home manages finances and fundraising. It also includes interviews with members of the Board of Trustees, leadership, staff, and clients.
To make sure we are prepared for the review, the Home’s staff will conduct a mock site visit in July.
The accreditation process is a great way to regularly check all of our functional systems to ensure we are using the best practices out there to fulfill our mission and enhance our impact for those who need us most. We look forward to this EAGLE review for the greater good of the Home and the children, youth, and families we serve.
