Agency Review Program

Considering utilizing the Agency Review Program?

The goal of the ARP review is to provide the Chief with an additional management and leadership tool: a critical look at the organization through the eyes of peer professionals. The report should serve as a guide to identify areas that need strengthening and highlight positive and innovative programs and practices. Ideally, the information provided will motivate the organization, as a whole to improve internal and external services and facilitate additional community support.
