| dc.description.abstract | The intent of this project is to provide counsellors and psychologists with guidance for applying the mature minor doctrine in Canada. In addition, relevant consent forms located in the appendix of the project will provide further resources on ethical practice. The literature review focuses on the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms relevant to minors; counselling theories that support minors’ rights to self-determination; the informed consent process with minors; and laws and ethics relating to consent and mature minors. The final section of the project discusses the strengths and limitations of the project. | en |
