Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a Three-Year Accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) Accreditation for the following identified programs:
- Minot Campus Residential programs
- Minot Community Youth Home
- Western Plains Residential Treatment Center
- Fargo Residential Treatment Center

“When the service or program you choose is CARF-accredited, it means your provider has passed an in-depth review of its services. It is your assurance that the provider meets rigorous CARF guidelines for service and quality — a qualified endorsement that your provider conforms to nationally and internationally recognized service standards and is focused on delivering the most favorable results for you.”

CARF-accredited programs ensure the highest industry standards possible, providing risk reduction and accountability.
CARF-accredited programs reflect practices that are based on standards of quality and accountability. Using the standards as a foundation for business and service delivery practices, an organization can greatly reduce the common risks involved in providing rehabilitation and human services.
Because CARF accreditation is designed to demonstrate a provider’s conformance to nationally- and internationally-accepted standards, accreditation can significantly reduce governmental monitoring, help to streamline regulation processes, and assist payers in determining a provider’s conformance to outcomes and performance standards.
CARF accreditation tells payers that a program or service selected by a consumer pursues a service approach based on continuous quality improvement and is accountable for its performance through outcomes evidence and the satisfaction of the persons served.
Payers can have the highest possible confidence in programs and services that carry CARF accreditation—the standard for performance excellence.
