The long awaited document to help state and local efforts understand how and when it is appropriate to share information about a family or individual, in order to provide more effective services, in ways consistent with confidentiality laws and requirements was released by the Administration for Children and Families. The ACF Confidentiality Toolkit helps state and local efforts by:
· Providing examples of how confidentiality requirements can be addressed and met in a manner fully consistent with governing laws and underlying policies
· Including sample Memoranda of Understandings and data sharing agreements
· Providing helpful guidance to states and localities
