I appreciate how the Network always offers support to member centers, informing us of the latest research, topics of interest and upcoming professional development opportunities.  Whenever I have a question or need clarification (such as interpreting specific language within a quality assurance standard), the Network is quick to respond and assist! I appreciate that the Network has a pulse on what's going on with other centers in the state as well as having connections with the other regions of CACs across the country, which helps to keep us informed of best practices.    -CAC Provider
