Molly Schaeffer from OASO explains how they ensure compliance with laws restricting access to non-public areas and protecting immigrant information in the context of the shelter system for immigrant newcomers.

  • Clear policies are in place for on-site access at all sheltering locations
  • Escalation policies are critical for handling unexpected visitor requests
  • Data privacy measures include limited access based on job roles and clear guidelines for data transmission
  • OASO owns and controls the data for their system, implementing strict privacy protocols
  • Continuous work with agencies to maintain and improve these compliance measures
