The International Centre for Clubhouse Development (ICCD) was established in 1994 and serves to promote the development and strengthening of clubhouses.
The ICCD oversees the creation and evolution of standards, facilitates and assures the quality of training, consultation, certification, research and advocacy, and provides effective communication and dissemination of information.
"The Standards" provide the governing principles of what a Clubhouse is and the services they offer. They act as a "bill of rights" for members and a code of ethics for staff, board and administrators.
These Standards also provide the basis for assessing clubhouse quality, through the ICCD accreditation process.
As an accredited Clubhouse, the quality of the services offered in Suaimhneasis regularly reviewed by an independent team of assessors from the ICCD.
