When counseling in a school setting, which of the following sets of ethics usually applies?
  1. HIPAA
  2. FERPA
  3. ASCA
  4. AAMFT
Explanation
Answer - C - The set of ethics set by the ASCA, the American School Counseling Association, applies in school settings. For school counselors, there are guidelines about what is shared with whom, for what reasons, or about a child’s personal welfare. Everything is considered differently. HIPAA and FERPA are federal laws regulating health information and student data. AAMFT ethics may apply if the MFT is practicing on a school campus, though some schools have different requirements.
