[Prep] Parental Consent

[Andrea E. Skewes]

Hello everyone!

I am looking into the topic of parental consent and having parents sign permission forms for PREP classes.  In particular, parental consent has been indicated as a barrier for some of our programs.  Does anyone have federal recommendations regarding consent?  What does your state do for parental consent?  Do you have exemptions for high risk youth (homeless/street/transient)?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thank you,
