LARR Confidentiality Statement

Application for LARR Certification is voluntary. LARR transparently measures and reports on provider compliance with the NARR Standard and the LARR Code of Ethics. Prior to making application to LARR for certification, applicant organizations should expect LARR certification staff to be:

•  respectful, helpful and consultative to applicant organization personnel
• responsible for maintenance of LARR Certification integrity
• consistent and uniform in their evaluation of provider compliance to the NARR Standard
• transparent in reporting certification stage and status through appropriate channels
• absent from participation in industry rumor-mongering and/or gossip

All documentation submitted by applicants for certification is held by LARR in confidence and accessed by LARR Certification, Training & Grievance Staff for the sole purpose of determining the applicant organization’s initial and continuing compliance with the NARR Standard and the LARR Code of Ethics. The information contained in an organization’s documentation is not made available to external parties unless LARR is compelled to release that documentation under law.

Limited and non-invasive information regarding Applicant Profile is automatically and uniformly made available to the public on several locations of the LARR Website for the purposes of identification and confirmation of application and certification status. Persons who seek recovery-oriented housing may search this database utilizing filters such as population(s) and genders served support level, weekly/monthly rent, move in expense, recovery path, etc. Only certified residences in good standing are visible to the general public.

A change of certification status to “Suspended” and/or “Revoked” immediately and automatically removes that residence from public facing listing on the LARR website. However, access to this information is available to all applicants, certified residences and affiliates through the LARR portal under “Applicant Stages & Statuses”.

For the protection of residents (consumers), LARR publishes only the city, town or village as a location identifier for all applicant and certified residence locations and does not publish the street address. Please be mindful that your corporate address will be listed in your company profile and will be visible to the public. As this is an automated process, applicants should be aware of this policy when completing the online application.

In instances where the applicant organization operates multiple support levels, gender specific locations and/or multiple recovery paths specific to locations, LARR provides multiple listings revealing only the city, town or village as a location identifier.
