An organization must have and follow a correspondence policy. The organization will keep records of the child's contacts with their family. The policy will specify the conditions under which the organization restricts the receipt of correspondence to or from a child and requires that the child and parent or guardian be informed of the restriction, the reason for the restriction, and that the restriction is documented in the child's record. The policy must prohibit staff from reading children's correspondence except where there is a legitimate documented reason to do so. When staff read a child's correspondence, the child must be present. Packages may be inspected.
