Peer Circle: Working with Minors and Obtaining Consent - Dec 8, 2026

Program Information

In the Working with Minors and Obtaining Consent Peer Circle, you’ll explore the issues of consent that come up when you work with children, especially in situations where custody arrangements are unclear. This Peer Circle can explore issues such as what to do when a parent withdraws their consent, how to support a child who shares sensitive information about their parents, and what the role of a substitute decision maker involves.

Learn about:

  • Assessing capacity to consent to treatment
  • Informed consent and changing the direction of treatment
  • Determining a child’s best interest and preferences for continuing treatment
