Bergen's Promise recently celebrated their 16th anniversary as a company, as well as their first anniversary of being accredited by CARF. CARF stands for Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities and is an international, non-profit organization that was founded in 1966 by a U.S. Social and Rehabilitation Services commissioner. By being accredited, Bergen's Promise is being recognized for their human-services. In order to be accredited, an organization must show numerous areas of practice, such as behavioral health and psycho-social rehabilitation. Child and youth services and other community services are other aspects that are considered when applying to be accredited by CARF. This accreditation is also what attracts other providers to work with the company as well as families looking for services. It shows that Bergen's Promise has been consistently dedicated to helping their community and will only continue to do so in the future.
