5800.1DCHA takes several steps to avoid recommending participant families and Owners for termination from the Program. Prior to making a Recommendation for Termination (RFT), DCHA will provide notice to the affected party/parties that includes a description of the violation, an explanation that failure to correct the violation may result in a recommendation for termination, and instructions on what must be done to correct the violation.
5800.2Before DCHA makes a recommendation for termination, there are several opportunities for a Family or Owner to cure or explain the circumstances surrounding the violation. These include:
(a) Walk-in Appointment days;
(b) Scheduled informal meetings; and
(c) Reviewing reasonable accommodation requests that pertain to the recommendation for termination.
