Administrative Plan 7/1/2025 Page 16-55 <br />Failure to Provide Documentation [24 CFR 5.2007(c)] <br />In order to deny relief for protection under VAWA, a PHA must provide the individual <br />requesting relief with a written request for documentation of abuse. If the individual fails to <br />provide the documentation within 14 business days from the date of receipt, or such longer time <br />as the PHA may allow, the PHA may deny relief for protection under VAWA. <br />16-IX.E. CONFIDENTIALITY [24 CFR 5.2007(b)(4)] <br />All information provided to the PHA regarding domestic violence, dating violence, sexual <br />assault, stalking, or human trafficking, including the fact that an individual is a victim, must be <br />retained in confidence. This means that the PHA (1) may not enter the information into any <br />shared database, (2) may not allow employees or others to access the information unless they are <br />explicitly authorized to do so and have a need to know the information for purposes of their <br />work, and (3) may not provide the information to any other entity or individual, except to the <br />extent that the disclosure is (a) requested or consented to by the individual in writing, (b) <br />required for use in an eviction proceeding, or (c) otherwise required by applicable law. <br />SAHA Policy <br />If disclosure is required for use in an eviction proceeding or is otherwise required by <br />applicable law, SAHA will inform the victim before disclosure occurs so that safety risks <br />can be identified and addressed. <br />EXHIBIT 1
