Rima Rivera explains the process of handling domestic violence liaison waivers:

  • Liaisons at Family Justice Centers do not process waivers directly
  • Social workers at benefit access centers process waivers for clients who meet exemption criteria
  • These waivers exempt clients from certain PA requirements that might put them at risk
  • Rima Rivera mentions having statistics on the number of DV liaison waivers processed but needs to locate the specific information

We have social workers at benefit access centers that process waivers for clients who meet an exemption or waiver from meeting the requirements for PA because doing so might put them at risk.
