Is Anything New Expected of Organizations Like Mine?

Organizations are responsible for making the transformations from an organization focus to the community perspective. Organizations are defined as the bridge that connects people with their communities.

The role of the organization is not necessarily just to provide high quality of services and supports. Organizations use services and supports to connect people with their communities.

The best organizations are the ones that build the best bridges between us and others. They help us individually, they help us understand communities, and they introduce us to other people in the community and bring people together.

The Quality Measures 2005^® emphasize the bridging role of support and service organizations for the people they serve.
