Confidentiality will be maintained at all times. When a verbal or written complains is made concerning an association member, the following procedure will be followed: 1.

Staff members are encouraged to call the parent first if appropriate. 2.

If the matter is resolved at this point, a written summary of the successful resolution will be forwarded to all parties. 4.
