Student Confidentiality: Guidance for Educational Interpreters

This document has been developed to clarify for local educational agencies (LEAs) the important liability issues that may be present when providing sign language interpreters in settings that involve the sharing of confidential information by a student who is deaf or hard of hearing (e.g., when interacting with outside agencies, crisis response and management, in-school therapy and counseling).
