Project PCOS Receives The HONcode accreditation
 |
We comply with the HONcode standard for trustworthy health information: verify here. |
On April 13, 2007 The Project PCOS website received HONcode accreditation. The HON code is provided by The Health on the Net Foundation, a leading organization promoting and guiding the deployment of useful and reliable online medical and health information, and its appropriate and efficient use.
To be approved, a website has to meet several criteria and agree to follow the principles of HON. The HON code staff reviews a site to insure all criteria are being complied with. www.projectpcos.org has complied with these criteria and therefore has received the designation of being HONCode health trust worthy.
Each request for accreditation is examined by a member of the HONcode review team. HON makes a thorough visit of the site and verifies that all eight of the HONcode ethical principles are respected. The site is accredited by HON when the site not only complies with the HON code principles but also demonstrates how each principle is implemented. As the result of the HON code accreditation the site which is found to respect the eight HON code principles is given a unique ‘active seal’ to place on their pages.
Project PCOS is thrilled to announce we are now part of the over 3,600 websites accredited by HON as a reliable health resource on the internet.
The Project PCOS Team has and will continue to work to ensure the PCOS Community receives the most accurate, up to date and informative information possible and we thank you for supporting us!
