We have children’s programs with children between the ages of 10 and 18, and sometimes they are remanded to our programs straight from court without a parent. Who do i give the notice of privacy practices to?

Give the Notice of Privacy to the child. There are instances where an un-emancipated minor can exercise his/her privacy rights. If the minor can consent to the treatment without parent consent, giving the document to the minor is appropriate. If the minor cannot consent to the treatment on his or her own or the parent/legal guardian is involved in the treatment, send a copy to the parent or legal guardian.
