An accountability framework connecting individuals to accountable professional services. Public benefit organisation. Open membership.
Founded 2023. Incorporated 2024.
SAC connects people who need professional services with practitioners and organisations that have committed to accountability beyond regulatory minimums.
- Individuals become members (no fee)
- Professional practitioners become members (self-assessment + peer review)
- Organisations become institutional members (accountability audit + annual reporting)
SAC does not provide legal services. SAC does not regulate. SAC holds members accountable to the commitments they made when they joined.
