the Georgia Code
2006 Georgia Code - 49-4-191
49-4-191. The department shall establish and enforce
standards and procedures to: (1) Screen and identify recipients of TANF
assistance with a history of being victims of domestic violence,
while protecting the confidentiality of any such recipients;
(2) Refer any such recipients to
counseling and supportive services; and (3) Waive, pursuant to a determination of good
cause, other program requirements for any such recipients of TANF
assistance, such as time limits, for so long as necessary,
residency requirements, child support cooperation requirements, and
family cap provisions, in cases where compliance with such
requirements would make it more difficult for individuals receiving
TANF assistance to escape domestic violence or unfairly penalize
such recipients who are or have been victimized by such violence,
or individuals who are at risk of further domestic violence.
