Organizational initiatives recognized for addressing staff development and expanding residential options.

In recognition of two organizational initiatives with a transformative impact, The Council on Quality and Leadership, (CQL) is honoring AHRC New York City with a 2025 CQL Award of Excellence. AHRC NYC’s organizational initiatives enhance the professional development of its employees and advance the utilization of technology in residential settings to improve the lives of people with disabilities.
Both programs from AHRC New York City demonstrate the organization’s focus on supporting staff, improving services, and transforming lives.
“These are innovative, intentional efforts by AHRC New York City to better support staff and enhance quality of life,” says Mary Kay Rizzolo, President and CEO of The Council on Quality and Leadership. “We want to congratulate everyone from AHRC New York City for receiving this award. It’s a testament to their continuous commitment to quality improvement.”
