By this Consent and Release Agreement (“Consent and Release”), I hereby grant certain rights to Eluna and release Eluna from certain liabilities, on behalf of myself (if I am a camper, employee, volunteer or visitor) or on behalf of my Children (if I am the parent, guardian, or caretaker of a minor camper, junior counselor, alumni or youth family member, employee, volunteer or visitor).  This Consent and Release confirms my Children’s and my grant of rights and our agreement is as follows:
1. Grant of Rights.  
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, I, on behalf of myself and my Children, hereby grant to Eluna and its directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, contractors, successors, and assigns the perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable right and license to: (a) use, edit, reproduce, modify, portray, publish, copy, distribute, create derivative works from, publicly perform and display without restriction all or portions of my or my Children's identity and my or my Children’s experience at Camp Mariposa, including without limitation my or my Children’s name, fictional names (if any), voice, signature, photograph, words, image, personality or other likeness of me or my Children, and any audio and video recordings of me or my Children or remarks and statements made by me or my Children (“Images and Remarks”); and, (b) create other materials or copyright-protected works using or incorporating my or my Children's Images and Remarks in any form or manner, including in any electronic or non-electronic medium now known or later devised, in connection with Camp Mariposa for advertising, distribution, marketing, promotion, publicity, research, reporting or any other lawful purpose (“Promotional Materials”). I understand that this Consent and Release will cover all of my or my Children’s future participation at any Camp Mariposa activities.

I waive any of my or my Children's right to own, inspect, approve or receive any payment or attribution with respect to any works or Promotional Materials using my or my Children's Images and Remarks, any accompanying written copy or printed matter, or the use to which it is applied.  I understand and agree that the Images and Remarks, and Promotional Materials containing or based on my or my Children's Images and Remarks may be used without any restriction as to changes or alterations, and may be modified, used in derivative works, distorted, included in composites or otherwise used in unexpected contexts, manners, or forms, or may not be used at all, and I grant Eluna all necessary rights to do the foregoing.  To the extent moral rights in my or my Children's Images and Remarks or any Promotional Materials may not lawfully be waived, I hereby agree not to bring any actions or claims against Eluna therefor.

2.  Contact.  Unless I opt out below, I agree to receive information/news/updates and other communications in hard copy, via electronic delivery, via telephone and other means from Eluna.  I hereby consent to collection and disclosure of my mailing address, email address and phone number to Eluna for such purposes, unless I opt out below.

Camp Mariposa Evaluation of Informed Consent for Parents and Guardians

Important Notice: Please read this consent document before proceeding. 

Purpose:
Camp Mariposa collects information on participants for organizational, research, and evaluation purposes. Through this effort, we hope to continuously improve the Camp Mariposa program. By proceeding and signing the bottom of this page, you have agreed for you and your youth to participate. This program evaluation is being conducted by Camp Mariposa and Eluna, in conjunction with researchers and Camp Mariposa funders. We appreciate your participation.

Risks and Benefits:
The Youth Application, Evaluation Survey, and Youth Questionnaire include items regarding family history, substance use, juvenile justice involvement, peer relationships, mentor relationships, education, and quality of life. If any of these topics make you or your youth uncomfortable, or you do not care to answer, you or your youth may choose not to answer. The collection of this information and the subsequent evaluation process pose minimal risk as Camp Mariposa ensures confidentiality of your information.

Right to Privacy:

All forms and materials will be maintained by Camp Mariposa staff, and any data shared for research or evaluation purposes will be made anonymous to protect participant confidentiality. Identifiable information collected during the study will be removed, and de-identified information be used for future research studies or distributed to another investigator for future research studies without additional informed consent from participants or legally authorized representative. The results of any research or evaluation may be released to Camp Mariposa management, Eluna, affiliates and funders. If the results of any study are shared or published, the privacy of camp participants and their families will be protected, and individuals will not be identified in any way.


Right to Participate or Withdraw:
This notice is distributed to all Camp Mariposa campers and their parents/guardians. Participation is completely voluntary, and you or your youth may request to withdraw consent (verbally or in writing), choose not to answer any question on our forms, and/or ask questions at any time. You and your youth’s relationship with Eluna, Camp Mariposa, and any research or funding entities supporting this work will not be affected if you or your youth chose to not take part in the study or change your mind later. There is no incentive for participating at this time other than knowing you are helping us develop our program to help future campers and their families.

Consent:
Below we request the consent of camper parents/guardians. Your signature means that you have read this form in its entirety, comprehend the consent, and are willing to participate in sharing your and your youth’s information for program evaluation and research purposes. 



For any questions about this form or the research and evaluation project, please contact: Brian J. Maus, MA, LMFT, Director of Addiction Prevention and Mentoring Programs at brianmaus@elunanetwork.org or 267-563-7462
I hereby certify that the information given on this application is factual and complete. I give my permission for any necessary verification.
