Common use of Accompaniment Clause in Contracts

Accompaniment. When possible, [insert relevant staff] should accompany clients for walk-ins [insert relevant transport considerations as needed]. Provide the referral agency a referral letter (see Appendix D), including a detailed reason for referral (only if the client gives permission for this information to be included in the referral letter). This is an important option to offer the client because it can help the referral agency know the client’s general situation and needs without the client having to recount their experiences of violence.
