This CSAP Accreditation webinar is an overview of how the Community Sexual Assault Program accreditation process works, including its purpose, review cycle, scoring, documentation requirements, interview topics, file reviews, and the major standards agencies are expected to meet across board governance, staffing, services, and operations. It is useful because it helps programs understand not just what materials must be submitted, but how accreditation is evaluated in practice, especially the importance of consistency across policies, procedures, staff interviews, public materials, and client documentation. By laying out the process, standards, and common review areas in a clear format, the webinar gives agencies a practical roadmap for preparing effectively, identifying gaps in advance, and improving readiness for a successful accreditation review.
