Hi,
I'm making a documentary and would like to publish some "appropriate" pictures of some of the kids I worked with when they were minors. Their ages were 10-18 in the late 90's- so all of them are over 18 now. Most were orphans that were wards of the state until they turned 18. I own the pictures and they were taking knowlingly in normal situations. How does HIPPA/Confidential laws work for a picture taken 13 years ago of a minor in a residential facility who is now an adult? Also, what about the few kids that had normal mom and dads? Would I need their (the mom and dads) permission, or the childs who is now an adult? Any suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Travis
