Is BeMe coaching confidential?
Yes, all sessions are strictly confidential. BeMe prioritizes creating a safe and private environment for teens to discuss their thoughts and feelings openly. There are a few situations where coaches are responsible for sharing information, such as if the teen is a danger to themselves or others.
If a teen is in crisis and needs immediate support, they will be connected to the BeMe crisis line, which is free and available 24/7: 1-866-439-2363. They can also text 988. Coaches are also mandated reporters, and if they learn of any situation where a child has been harmed or is being harmed, they need to take steps to keep everyone safe, which includes reporting to appropriate agencies.
