OUR CARF ACCREDITATION ENSURES THAT: > OUR PROGRAMS AND SERVICES ACTIVELY INVOLVE CONSUMERS IN SELECTING, PLANNING, AND USING SERVICES. > OUR PROGRAMS AND SERVICES HAVE MET CONSUMER-FOCUSED, STATE-OF-THE-ART NATIONAL STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE. > OUR ORGANIZATION IS FOCUSED ON ASSISTING EACH CONSUMER IN ACHIEVING HIS OR HER CHOSEN GOALS AND OUTCOMES. IN OUR MOST RECENT CARF ACCREDITATION SURVEY, CONDUCTED IN 2008, GOODWILL WAS COMMENDED FOR DEMONSTRATING EXEMPLARY CONFORMANCE TO THE STANDARDS AS DOCUMENTED IN THE SURVEY REPORT: > "THE ORGANIZATION IS IMPLEMENTING A NEW MISSION STATEMENT THAT EMPHASIZES PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATION WITH OTHER COMMUNITY AGENCIES. ITS EMPHASIS ON VARIOUS COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS IS EXCEPTIONAL. COOPERATIVE EFFORTS WITH THE COMMUNITY COLLEGES ARE EVIDENT. ADDITIONAL EXAMPLES INCLUDE THE URBAN LEAGUE, CRISIS CONTROL MINISTRY, AND THE CROSBY SCHOLARS COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP. THESE PARTNERSHIPS HAVE BEEN INITIATED IN ORDER TO ENHANCE THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE SERVED BY GOODWILL AND TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS." > "THE BUSINESS ADVISORY MODEL ADOPTED BY THIS GOODWILL APPEARS TO BE INVOLVED, UNIQUE, AND EXCEPTIONALLY SUCCESSFUL. BUSINESS ADVISORY COUNCILS ARE TRADITIONALLY DIFFICULT TO FORM, CULTIVATE AND ENGAGE. GOODWILL HAS DEVELOPED EXCEPTIONAL COUNCILS, SOME OF WHICH HAVE BEEN FORMED ALONG INDUSTRY LINES SUCH AS OFFICE TECHNOLOGY, HEALTH SERVICES, AND SERVICE INDUSTRY THAT PROMOTE RELATIONSHIP BUILDING THROUGHOUT THE RESPECTIVE COMMUNITIES. THESE RELATIONSHIPS ALLOW ACCESS TO INFORMATION REGARDING EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES THAT CAN THEN BE EFFECTIVELY USED TO RAISE POTENTIAL EARNING LEVELS FOR INDIVIDUALS WHILE MEETING COMMUNITY NEEDS. THE ACTIVE, ENERGETIC BUSINESS ADVISORY COUNCILS ARE INSTRUMENTAL IN ENHANCING EMPLOYMENT SERVICES OFFERED. THE KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE THE COMMUNITY LEADERS BRING TO THE COUNCILS NOT ONLY STRENGTHEN THE QUALITY OF SERVICES, BUT ALSO PROVIDE AN EXTENSIVE NETWORK LEADING TO ADDITIONAL JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS SERVED." GOODWILL WAS ALSO COMMENDED BY CARF FOR ITS STRENGTH IN HAVING "A BOARD OF DIRECTORS THAT IS DEDICATED, DIVERSE, AND ENGAGED THROUGH AN ACTIVE COMMITTEE STRUCTURE. PARTICIPATION IS REQUIRED ON AT LEAST ONE OF THE COMMITTEES; I.E., EXECUTIVE, RECRUITMENT, WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, FINANCE, AUDIT, CONTRACT SERVICES, PERSONNEL, AND MARKETING. SENIOR STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT AT EACH BOARD MEETING IN CONJUNCTION WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE BOARD COMMITTEE(S)." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT -------------------- GOODWILL OFFERS DONORS A WAY TO DISPOSE OF THEIR UNWANTED ITEMS WHILE HELPING THEIR COMMUNITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT. IN 2010 ALONE, 37 MILLION POUNDS OF UNWANTED ITEMS WERE RECYCLED AS A RESULT OF GOODWILL'S RETAIL OPERATIONS. THROUGH EFFICIENT AND RESPONSIBLE PROCESSING, 100% OF POST-CONSUMER ELECTRONICS AND 99.5% OF DONATED TEXTILES ARE SOLD OR RECYCLED. THESE AMOUNTS GREATLY REDUCE THE COST BURDEN ON LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. IN 2008, GOODWILL OPENED ITS WHITAKER REGIONAL OPERATIONS CENTER IN WINSTON-SALEM. THIS FACILITY WAS DESIGNED TO THE US GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL'S STRINGENT LEED (LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN) STANDARDS AND RECENTLY BECAME LEED CERTIFIED. LEED CERTIFICATION IS THE NATIONAL BENCHMARK FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE GREEN BUILDINGS. THROUGHOUT THE PLANNING AND DESIGNING OF THE CENTER, GOODWILL'S GOALS WERE TO REDUCE ITS PULL ON LOCAL RESOURCES THROUGH REDUCED ENERGY AND WATER CONSUMPTION, TO IMPROVE THE FACILITY FOR THE WORKER AND CUSTOMER AND TO REDUCE THE ORGANIZATION'S AFFECT ON THE ENVIRONMENT. SINCE THE COMPLETION OF THE REGIONAL OPERATIONS CENTER, GOODWILL HAS BUILT THREE ADDITIONAL FACILITIES TO LEED STANDARDS. GOODWILL HAS BEEN IN THE RECYCLING BUSINESS FOR NEARLY 100 YEARS; GREEN CONSTRUCTION IS A NATURAL EXTENSION OF IT.
