KEYS currently partners with several organizations working to create safer healthier communities. In order to determine where programming should take place and how funding is issued to address social determinants of health, KEYS has to share certain demographic information.
KEYS along with other community organizations fund many programs in Maryland. We want to make sure that these programs help young people. To do this, we check on (evaluate) the programs often. With this form, we ask you to allow us to use your information as we check on your program. If you allow us, we will use some information about you, such as Name, Date of birth, Program participation records, and “Unique school ID” (Student Identification Number), if needed.
KEYS and Family League also work with other agencies in Baltimore City, such as Baltimore City Public Schools. We may use your information to connect to their databases (computer files) and access some or all of the information below: Gender, race, ethnicity, School day attendance, State test scores for math and reading, and iReady test scores.
Plus, we may ask you to fill out a survey. This survey will ask what you think about this program. Your answers will help us check how the program is doing.
No one will use your information in any other way without your permission.
We will keep all your information confidential and private. Only KEYS and Family League staff, researchers, and other approved funding staff will look at your information. Your program staff will not see your information.
When we talk or write about what we find out, we will not share your name. We will not share parts of your information that make it easy for others to know it is you. Instead, we will talk about information about groups of people. Also, we will not use names as we check on how the program is doing.
You may choose to share your information. You may also choose not to share your information.
Either way, you may still take part in your program.
If we give you a survey, you may choose to answer only the questions you want. You may also choose to answer no questions. No money will be paid for letting us use your information or answering our questions. We hope to get information that will make this program better. As programs get better, they will help more people.
