A note about Minor Consent, Confidentiality and CA Sensitive Services:
In our school-based health locations, most young people are under the age of 18 and therefore need their parent or guardian to consent to treatment on behalf of them for most services. In California, we have minor consent laws which enable young people aged 12 and over to consent to some services.
Minor consent laws allow young people aged 12 and over to consent to certain services without parent or guardian involvement. Minors may consent to certain services related to sexual and reproductive health, mental health, and drug and alcohol treatment. For details, please see the National Center for Youth Law’s California Minor Consent and Confidentiality Laws grid. When a young person accesses services under minor consent laws, those services are to be maintained confidentially – meaning that providers are bound by law to not share this information, including with parents/guardians.
