Organization Program structural change recommendation

[AEMDuaneBrown]

In discussing with an SEA, we presently have Organization Type as a subclass of Organization so that all of the types of organizations can inherit any Organization properties. This, we feel is correct. But Program also has a Type called "Program Type". In that we have created a class called Program Type which has Individual properties that indicate the type of program. The recommendation is that these actually become subclasses of the Program class instead of Individuals. By doing this, those types of Programs (which are also Organizations) can inherit the properties of Organization. We identified this when looking at Elements issue 715 (CEDStandards/CEDS-Elements#715) which is proposing to create Neglected Program Type and Delinquent Program Type. These types of programs are also Organizations and would need to inherit organization properties.

Example: Neglected Program Type = Residential Treatment Home. A Residential Treatment Home is an organization that has a name, a location, financial components related to funding, a calendar, an identifier, membership, any many other aspects that would make it an Organization. So the proposed change is to structure Organization (Class) - Program (Subclass) - Neglected Program (Subclass) - Community Day Program (Subclass).
