maintaining the high regard of placement agencies, volunteers, funding sources,
present and future employees, and the community at large. It is important, therefore,

and techniques of the Agency are accurate and professional in tone and purpose.

in the course of the employee's duties or with the prior written consent of the
Chief Executive Officer, publish or disclose to any person or agency, any information
or opinion about the residents, employees, volunteers, financial condition, operational
procedures, physical facilities, interagency relations, or other affairs of the
Agency.
