Our organization draws outstanding leadership from across the United States. Our accomplishments have included the development of national recommended operating Standards and Guidelines, initiating nationwide surveys and national accreditation, as well as developing curriculum for professional development geared to the needs of adult day services managers and direct care workers.

Success will be marked as older Minnesotans have improved access to the quality long-term care services they need, and workers can count on care-giving careers to support their families.
