Each child welfare agency is required to have a process by which a person can ask the agency to remove a name that the agency sent to the CACI for placement on the list. If your request for removal from the list is denied, you are entitled to a CACI grievance hearing at the agency, where you can present documents and evidence and arguments for why your name should be removed from the list.
