Community education holds a prominent position on Pioneer's agenda. The CACs, composed of members of the immediate residential area and local professionals, review Pioneer's residential programs and inform council members about the history of its resident population and any significant operating problems. Moreover, staff involvement and outreach within the community ensures that a host of relevant audiences are familiar with the agency and its personnel. Pioneer Human Services has been recognized by the Interagency Council on the Homeless as a model agency, with operating principles and a mindset applicable to other organizations.
