While volunteering, one may receive a certain amount of information about the person with whom they are working. This information is considered confidential.
The State of Colorado has strict regulations governing the disclosure of confidential information. In general, information about the person with whom you are working may not be released publicly by the agency or any representative of the agency (including volunteers), unless this person or his/her legal guardian gives written authorization.
