Confidentiality & Intervention Agreements

I understand that every attempt will be made to guard my anonymity and confidentiality in this group, but that anonymity and confidentiality cannot be absolutely guaranteed in a group setting. I understand that the group facilitator is morally and ethically obligated to discuss with me any of the following behaviors, and that this may lead to breaking of confidentiality and/or possibly intervention:

I communicate anything that may be interpreted as a threat to self-inflict physical harm.

I communicate an intention to harm another person.

I reveal ongoing sexual or physical abuse.

I exhibit an impaired mental state.

I reveal that I have perpetrated an act of child abuse and/or child molestation or have expressed the intent to commit such an act.

I reveal that I have perpetrated or am considering an abusive act toward the elderly and/or disabled.
