Confidentiality and Release of Information:
All information about you and your case will remain confidential. Before we can communicate information about your case to others, you (or if you are under 13 or a dependent adult, a parent/guardian) must sign a Release of Information form, which is valid for 60 days. Per RCW 5.60.060, a rape crisis advocate may not disclose information about your case to a court without your consent.
Mandatory Reporting:
Exceptions to confidentiality occur when: we have reason to suspect a child or vulnerable adult is abused or neglected (RCW 26.44.030); there is a threat to harm yourself or others; or a court of appropriate jurisdiction subpoenas your case record. Beyond Survival documents any mandated reports.
Non Discrimination:
Beyond Survival provides services, regardless of race, color, national origin, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, social/economic status, marital status, pregnancy, veteran status, disability or any other basis prohibited by federal, state or local law.
