As an organization that puts quality first, you know the importance of telling your story. Use your AAHSA Homecoming Week event to highlight your community involvement; talk about your activities and commitment in your speeches and mention them in your event materials. AAHSA Homecoming Week isn’t simply about hosting one event; it’s about sharing your good work with the community-at-large. Your Quality First initiative works hand in hand with this effort.

Quality First Connections

Highlight Quality First Element #4. Community Involvement by planning:

• Volunteer opportunities

Align with Quality First Element #10. Public Trust & Consumer Confidence to earn trust with:

• Residents and families by sharing their stories with your neighbors
• Employees by including them in the festivities
• Trustees and board members by showing them what you do everyday
• The media by teaching them more about your commitment to your community
• Policymakers by developing your relationship with them
