Ethics Principle #1: Non-discrimination Answer - Prevention Professionals shall
not discriminate against service recipients or colleagues based on race,
ethnicity, religion, national origin, sex, age, sexual orientation, education level,
economic or medical condition, or physical or mental ability. Prevention
professionals should broaden their understanding and acceptance of cultural
and individual differences and, in so doing, render services and provide
information sensitive to those differences.
Ethics Principal #2: Competence Answer - Prevention professionals shall
master their prevention specialty's body of knowledge and skill competencies,
strive continually to improve personal proficiency and quality of service
delivery, and discharge professional responsibility to the best of their ability.
competence includes a synthesis of education and experience combined with
an understanding of the cultures within which prevention application occurs.
The maintenance of competence requires continual learning and professional
improvement throughout one's career.
,1. Prevention professions should be diligent in discharging responsibilities.
Diligence imposes the responsibility to render services carefully and promptly,
to be thorough and to observe applicable standards.
2. Due care requires prevention professionals to plan and supervise adequately,
and to evaluate any professional activity for which they are responsible.
3. Prevention professionals should recognize limitations and boundaries of
their own competence and not use techniques or offer services outside those
boundaries. Prevention professionals are responsible for assessing the
adequacy of their own competence for the responsibility to be assumed.

prevention professionals. When this is not possible, prevention professionals
should seek peer supervision or mentoring from other competent prevention
professionals.

practice on the part of another prevention professional, they have an ethical
responsibility to report the conduct or practice to funding, regulatory, or other
appropriate bodies.
6. Prevention professionals should recognize the effect of impairment on
professional performance and should be willing to seek appropriate treatment.
Ethics Principal #3: Integrity Answer - To maintain and broaden public
confidence, prevention specialists should perform all responsibilities with the
highest sense of integrity. Personal gain and advantage should not subordinate
service and the public trust. Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error
and the honest difference of opinion. It cannot accommodate deceit or
subordination of principle.

should document and assign credit to all contributing sources used in
published material or public statements.

implication professional qualifications or affiliations.
C. Where there is evidence of impairment in a colleague or a service recipient,
a prevention specialist should be supportive of assistance or treatment.
, D. Prevention specialists should not be associated directly or indirectly with any
service, products, individuals, and organizations in a way that is misleading.
Ethics Principal #4: Nature of Services Answer - Practices shall do no harm to
service recipients. Services provided by prevention specialists shall be
respectful and non-exploitive.

inherent in each culture and individual.
B. Prevention specialists should use formal and informal structures to receive
and incorporate input from service recipients in the development,
implementation and evaluation of prevention services.
C. Where there is suspicion of abuse of children or vulnerable adults, the
prevention specialist shall report the evidence to the appropriate agency.
Ethics Principal #5: Confidentiality Answer - Confidential information acquired
during service delivery shall be safe guarded from disclosure, including - but
not limited to - verbal disclosure, unsecured maintenance of records, or
recording of an activity or presentation without appropriate releases.
Prevention specialists are responsible for knowing the confidentiality
regulations relevant to their prevention specialty.
Ethics Principal #6: Ethical Obligation to Community & Society Answer -
According to their consciences, prevention specialists should be proactive on
public policy and legislative issues. The public welfare and the individual's right
to services and personal wellness should guide the efforts of prevention
specialists to educate the general public and policy makers. Prevention
specialists should adopt a personal and professional stance that promotes
health.
