Participation in any Rowan‑House offering is voluntary and intended to support skill‑building, emotional regulation, and personal growth—not to treat or diagnose any condition. Please consult a qualified healthcare professional before making decisions regarding your mental or physical health.

While facilitators strive to create safe and supportive spaces, Rowan‑House and its affiliates are not responsible for any emotional or physical distress arising from participation or from the use of program materials.

By engaging with Rowan‑House services or content, you acknowledge and accept these terms, along with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

By signing below, I acknowledge and agree to the following:

  1. Personal Readiness

    • I am not currently in a mental health crisis.

    • I understand that this group is not a substitute for therapy, medical treatment, or psychiatric care.

    • If I need urgent or crisis support, I will contact my healthcare provider, local crisis service, or emergency line.

  2. Participation Standards

    • I will participate respectfully and contribute to maintaining a supportive environment.

    • I will keep all personal information shared by other participants confidential.

    • I understand that facilitators may redirect or pause discussion to maintain group safety, structure, or pacing.

  3. Confidentiality and Group Privacy

    • What is shared in the group stays within the group, except where disclosure is legally or ethically required (e.g., risk of harm to self or others, or court order).

    • Rowan-House facilitators may take anonymized notes for program improvement but will not share personal identifiers.

  4. Voluntary Participation

    • Participation is entirely voluntary. I may choose to step back, skip an activity, or withdraw from the session at any time.

    • I understand that facilitators can also ask a participant to step out if safety, respect, or group cohesion becomes an issue.

  5. Waiver and Consent

    • I understand that these sessions are for skill development and personal learning.

    • I release Rowan-House, its facilitators, and associated organizations from liability for any emotional distress or discomfort that may arise from participation.
