Lutheran Homes Society (LHS) has been awarded the Educational Assessment Guidelines Leading toward Excellence (EAGLE) Accreditation from the EAGLE Accreditation Commission of the United Methodist Association of Health & Welfare Ministries.
EAGLE Accreditation is designed for faith-based, health and wholeness organizations to enhance the quality of services provided. It incorporates organizational self-study, verification by a team of trained peer reviewers, and mandatory participation by the organization’s governing body to promote excellence in Christian ministry.
LHS first received EAGLE Accreditation in 2004 and was the first Lutheran organization in the nation to complete the EAGLE process and achieve accreditation. Currently, LHS is one of only six older adult ministries accredited in the state of Ohio.
