A Los Angeles Times story from 1998 reports on ADRA's 1996 10-year strategic plan, which calls the agency "a bona fide ministry of Jesus Christ and the Seventh-day Adventist Church" and "provides a strategy to reach people previously untouched by other church institutions. The church's mission is incomplete without ADRA's distinctive ministry."<ref>[http://articles.latimes.com/1998/aug/14/news/mn-13136 A History of Complaints Dogs Adventist Aid Agency], ''Los Angeles Times'', August 14, 1998</ref>Much has been said about faith-based agencies taking US government funding and using those funds to further religious doctrinal missions, however ADRA does not proselytise. It claims to operate "by love with no strings attached"<ref>[http://www.adra.org/site/PageNavigator/about_us/faqs2/ Frequently Asked Questions]. Adventist Development and Relief Agency. 2010/09/08</ref>.

===International Development Degree Program===
In 1996 ADRA and Andrews University established the ADRA Professional Leadership Institute (APLI). The institute provided field-based training and continuing professional education to ADRA staff around the world. By the year 2000, the APLI program was used as a model by the Food Aid Management members as an example of "best practices for local capacity building." The model was well received by [[Africare]], [[World Vision]], and others. <ref name = "Watts" >{{Citation
