Nature's Bin Gets Some National Recognition
The Sloane Avenue store recognized by national accrediting organization for employment opportunities.
Nature’s Bin (Cornucopia) has gotten some national recongnition from CARF International — again.
This marks the 22nd straight year that Cornucopia has been given distinction for its employment practices.
Nature’s Bin was recognized by CARF — the organization formerly known as the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities — in several categories, including employment services; community employment services; and job-site training.
Nature’s Bin — a full-service natural and organic foods market located on Sloane Avenue — is operated by the nonprofit, Cornucopia.
According to the press release, CARF — founded in 1966 — is an independent, nonprofit accrediting body whose mission is to promote the quality, value, and optimal outcomes of services through a consultative accreditation process that centers on enhancing the lives of the persons served.
“We take great pride in this accreditation,” Scott Duennes, executive director of Cornucopia/Nature’s Bin, said in a statement. “This achievement is an indication of the commitment and dedication that Cornucopia and Nature’s Bin have in improving the quality of lives in the people we serve.”
