Confidentiality and Sexual Violence Survivors: A Toolkit for Sexual Assault Coalitions

This guide provides a checklist of issues, questions, and basic tips for a coalition staff attorney to use as a template when creating a confidentiality guide specific to the laws and policies of his/her state. Because the template is general, some of the topics enumerated may not be relevant to a particular state. Alternately, there may be some topics relevant to a state not included. National Crime Victim Law Institute, 2005.
