Facilitates documented and coordinated handoffs between program administrators
Ensures continuity of support during transition periods
Where Used:
Social Protection Agency administrators for managing program graduation
Case Management Units for tracking client program participation
Program Coordination Offices for ensuring seamless transitions
Policy Implementation Teams for executing graduation strategies
Why Required:
Prevents beneficiaries from "falling through the cracks" during program transitions
Enables coordinated graduation strategies across the social protection system
Ensures programmatic continuity and reduces service disruptions for vulnerable populations during transitions
