Confidentiality Policy
The primary purpose of the Harbor House Domestic Abuse Programs is to provide protection and safety to victims and the children of victims. The use or disclosure of any information by anyone affiliated with Harbor House (staff, volunteers, board members) that concerns the victims or the children of victims who receive services from Harbor House for any purpose is prohibited by state law. It is, therefore, a policy of the Harbor House Domestic Abuse Programs that any agent of Harbor House (staff, volunteers, board members) will treat all contact and information regarding victims and children of victims who receive services from Harbor House as confidential. No information regarding service recipients will be divulged either directly or indirectly.
- Harbor House Domestic Abuse Programs may not contact the perpetrator nor may we require that the victim contact the perpetrator.
- Harbor House may not reveal the victim's or the victim's children's whereabouts, or require the victim to rerveal such whereabouts.
- Files and all written documents regarding victims and the children of victims are to be maintained in a confidential manner.
Victims will be informed of their rights to confidentiality during the intake process. Staff, volunteers, and board members are still bound by this condition of confidentiality upon completion of employment, volunteer commitment, or board term.
