California Welfare and Institutions Code and all other applicable state and federal laws.
As a condition of and in consideration for the Department’s grant of access to its facilities for
photographing, filming, recording, interviewing or other media related activities, if granted access, I
understand and agree to the following:

1996 (HIPAA), the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act, the California Welfare and Institutions Code and
all other applicable state and federal laws, to safeguard patient privacy.
I understand and agree not to access any Developmental Centers or State-Operated Community Facilities for
photographing, filming, recording, or interviewing activities without obtaining prior authorization from the Department.
I understand and agree that media representatives shall contact the Developmental Center or State-Operated
