Networking and Mentoring

In true community, ANCOR members are actively building bridges to help providers connect around common needs and shared experiences. We understand that the greatest learning takes place in a dialogue among people and are aligning our programs and services to foster and encourage a high level dialogue among providers wherever they are. ANCOR membership provides this direct access to leading practices and practitioners and assists providers in establishing and maintaining standards of quality.

Our members take a proactive role in improving the quality of services and supports, and through membership in ANCOR have reduced frustration associated with federal and state mandates. Our members are anxious to mentor newer, smaller, and more diverse agencies as they begin their mission to support individuals with disabilities. In addition, ANCOR takes the initiative to link members with similar needs, interests and concerns in order to provide an active network for solutions and answers to questions and issues- an invaluable asset.

Many ANCOR members are involved in regional programs and committee work, offering numerous opportunities to exchange and share ideas, innovations and strategies or to provide a sounding board for you to work out your own plans and ideas.
