This is the second three-year certification for MHRS. It was last awarded in 2014.

The certification, the result of a two-day survey evaluating the board’s conformance with Culture of Quality (COQ) standards, including public affairs/education & community relations, risk management and maintenance, human resources, mission and program, governance, ethics, and board finance and operation.

The COQ is a collaborative effort of the Ohio Association of County Behavioral Health Authorities (OACBHA) and member boards.
