Reach out and let us know what you think about our Free Workshop Series

We aim to do our best to maintain confidentiality and keep all our participants safe. In order to do that, we need your agreement and understanding of the following:

1. A parent’s name and phone number is required with each registration. We will only contact you if there are safety concerns.

2. We require the location of each group participant at the time of the group.

3. We will only use first names in group, and no information about other participants can be shared with anyone.

4. There will not be any kinds of recordings of sessions, even by our members or facilitators.

5. If there are safety concerns (for self or others), or a suspicion of child abuse, then parents, police, and/or child protection authorities will be notified by the facilitator, as per our legal and ethical obligations.

6. Only registered participants are eligible to attend the virtual workshops so that we can maintain the safety all participants.

7. The cameras/video must remain on so that we can verify age and registration of each participant, and know who is in the space. Adults (especially unrelated to participants) will not be permitted to watch or participate.

8. There is only to be one participant per camera. If sibling groups would like to participate in the same workshop, we ask that each have their own device to ensure minimal distractions for other participants, manageable dynamics for facilitator, and siblings are to use devices in separate rooms to mitigate speaker feedback.

9. Parents and/or caregivers are encouraged to be home or easily available should a participant require additional support. Although we are virtually providing therapeutic programming, we are not responsible for the participant’s safety and encourage adequate adult supervision.

10. These groups are not a substitute for individual or group psychotherapy or treatment. If there are pressing mental health concerns, you are encouraged to explore treatment options on our resource page here.

By registering for group, you acknowledge, understand, agree and represent that you have read the above, and that you are accepting legal responsibility.
