Confidentiality of information about victims of certain crimes. Provides that, in order to ensure the safety of any adult or child victim of a violation of § 18.2-48, 18.2-355, 18.2-356, 18.2-357, or 18.2-357.1 and their families, programs and individuals providing services to such victims shall protect the confidentiality and privacy of persons receiving services by limiting the disclosure of information about such victims, including by prohibiting the release of individual client information without the informed consent of the minor and his parent or legal guardian, in cases in which the client is an unemancipated minor. The bill also clarifies that a person is a victim for purposes of such confidentiality and privacy protections regardless of whether any person has been charged with or convicted of any offense. The bill also provides that an alleged abuser of a minor or incapacitated person or of the minor's other parent may not consent to the release of confidential information.
