I, the undersigned parent or legal guardian, consent to allow Dinuba Unified School District (DUSD) to provide mental and behavioral health services aimed at enhancing student well-being, skill development, and fostering social support. DUSD is committed to supporting the well-being of all students by offering services that may include individual or group counseling, skill-building sessions, group interventions, and other supports designed to help students navigate personal, social, and emotional challenges.
I further consent to allow DUSD to bill my child's health insurance plan for services provided to my child under the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative (CYBHI). I understand that I will not be personally billed for any services my child receives at school. I understand that if my child is or may become eligible for services under CYBHI, I authorize DUSD to release student information for the limited purposes of billing health insurance plans
and to access health insurance for applicable services. This will not affect any insurance benefits I currently have or may receive. I understand that this information will be used solely for billing purposes and remains confidential under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and/or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) where applicable.
This consent applies only to services provided by DUSD, its designated providers, and/or affiliated partners. I understand that I may revoke this consent at any time by submitting a written request to the district at the address or email listed below. Until such revocation is received, this consent remains in effect through the date my child graduates from a school within Dinuba Unified School District.
I am the parent or legal guardian that is legally authorized to make health care decisions or non-emergency medical decisions on behalf of the dependent named in this document. By signing below, I acknowledge that I have been informed of the availability of these services and give permission for my child to participate as needed. These services are provided by qualified professionals to support my child’s overall well-being. If more intensive services
become necessary, I understand I will be contacted and asked to provide additional consent.
