Welcome to the new online application process.

Please note: If your organization would like to receive an accreditation cost estimate prior to completing the online application, please email info@chapinc.org before proceeding with the online account creation/online application process.

If you have not previously done so, click here to create an account on the new CHAP CARES Online Application for Accreditation System. If you have created an account on the new CHAP CARES Online Application for Accreditation click here.

Please note: The new CHAP CARES Online Application for Accreditation is not a registration system for the CARES Online Self Study. Agencies not currently contracted with CHAP must first complete the CARES Application for Accreditation and complete the contract process prior to accessing a self study. Agencies currently contracted with CHAP should contact CHAP Information Technology to access the online self study system.
