Program responsibilities after an action—What actions must the program take after notification that its certification has been suspended, revoked, or if no direct service staff are qualified to provide services?
(1) If the department revokes, suspends a program's certification, or if no qualified direct service staff are available to provide services, the program must:
(a) Take immediate steps to notify and refer current participants to other certified domestic violence intervention treatment programs prior to the effective date of revocation or suspension;
(b) Cease accepting participants of domestic violence into its treatment program;
(c) Notify victims, current partners of the participants, and any relevant agencies about the participant referral; and
(d) Notify, in writing, the presiding judge and chief probation officer of each judicial district from which the treatment program receives court referrals.
(2) If a program also holds a license or certification from the state of Washington for other treatment modalities, the department may notify the appropriate licensing or certifying authority that the program's domestic violence intervention treatment certification has been suspended or revoked, as applicable.
