Badges of Honor: Waypoint wins BEST OF THE 603

Over the past several months, 82,000 people throughout the Granite State voted among 2,800 businesses that were nominated as the BEST OF THE 603. In the nonprofit/service category, WAYPOINT GOT THE GOLD!

Produced by the Manchester Radio Group and presented by Fidium Fiber, BEST OF THE 603 is an annual statewide campaign to discover and celebrate the businesses, people and places Granite Staters love most, and recognize those who are doing exemplary work. Organizers point to the high voter turnout as a testament to how people feel about their favorite local businesses and the pride they have for New Hampshire.

Waypoint not only received the badge of honor, but will receive $12,000 of airtime to promote key messages throughout the year.

THANK YOU TO ALL WHO VOTED FOR WAYPOINT!

Waypoint reaccredited by COA

Waypoint has been reaccredited by the Council on Accreditation. Accreditation by COA is the highest achievement in social services and behavioral health care across the United States. COA accreditation is an objective, independent and reliable validation of an agency’s performance. The process involves a detailed analysis of an organization’s administration, management and service delivery functions against international standards of best practice. The standards driving accreditation ensure that services are well coordinated, culturally competent, evidence based, outcomes oriented, and provided by a skilled and supported workforce.

An agency that is COA accredited demonstrates accountability in the management of resources, sets standardized best-practice thresholds for service and administration, and increases organizational capacity and accountability by creating a framework for ongoing quality improvement.

Currently, Waypoint is the only social service agency in New Hampshire that is COA accredited.
