Acknowledgements:

  • Alternate Placement: If we are not able to meet a youth's needs, we may ask for your help to find a more suitable place.
  • Confidentiality: Your privacy is essential. We will not share private information, however we are mandated reporters that are required to report child or vulnerable adult abuse, if we believe a person’s life is in danger, or if we think a person may be a danger to others.
