Working policy

Connection needs boundaries.

Youth safety for Somebody Like Me.

Draft for review

This working policy must be reviewed by qualified counsel before launch. It is not legal advice.

Before a minor’s first session

Guardian consent, age-appropriate intake, platform rules, privacy expectations, and emergency contact procedures must be complete.

Mentors and minors do not use private social media or direct messaging. Sessions are not recorded by default.

Safety, required reporting, and escalation procedures must be finalized and explained in consent materials before launch.

Mentorship is not emergency or crisis care. A location-aware emergency and crisis message must be configured before accepting live bookings.
