The Crossroads Inc., one of the largest Arizona-based substance abuse treatment providers, has earned Joint Commission accreditation for several Valley locations.
The accreditation includes Crossroads Chandler, Crossroads at Pure Heart in Glendale and the Crossroads Aftercare Program at the Phoenix corporate office, reinforcing the organization’s compliance with national standards, according to a press release.
The accreditation, awarded in January 2026, recognizes Crossroads for meeting national requirements for patient safety, clinical quality and operational effectiveness. The Joint Commission evaluates organizations through on-site surveys and ongoing compliance reviews.
“Achieving Joint Commission accreditation across multiple locations is more than a credential. It reflects the high standards of care we strive to provide every person who walks through our doors,” Chris Riley, executive director of Crossroads, said. “This recognition affirms the work of our clinical teams and our commitment to ensuring safety, dignity, and quality care for those seeking long-term recovery.”
Joint Commission accreditation demonstrates an organization’s ability to meet nationally recognized benchmarks, including staff training, medication management, emergency preparedness, patient safety and continuous quality improvement. For those seeking treatment, the designation signals accountability and adherence to established clinical standards.
Crossroads provides residential, outpatient and transitional programs for men, women and veterans. With more than 50 years of experience, the organization offers treatment designed to support individuals at each stage of recovery.
