Why is confidentiality important for kids with special needs?
It ensures your child’s sensitive information is shared only with those who need it, protecting their privacy and optimizing their care.
Who is authorized to access my child's confidential records?
Typically, medical professionals, teachers involved in IEPs, and legal guardians are the ones allowed access.
Can confidentiality be broken in certain situations?
