There are plenty of well intentioned people and programs too though that aren't driven by bigotry.

That sounds like an interesting proposal.
2 questions:
1) What happens if you're 1 year into a 3 year program and see that it's veering off course? Maybe folks are gaming the system, or there's a flaw in the program that's limiting its effectiveness. Do you still have the ability to change the program dynamics? Would version 2 only get a 2 year run then?
2) What does the 3rd party have the authority to do? Can they shut down the program or mandate changes? What's to stop activists at an organization from re-running a program even if it got a negative report from a 3rd party?
