NP but please list it out for us, I have no idea what you are talking, and no this will not affect a child's security clearance in 20 years. |
cite? |
Having security clearance affects like 3% of the population. Even if it were true, which it is not… |
And depression currently affects 99% of the population. The only kids who aren't depressed are the ones whose parents opted them out of the screener. |

Ok, troll. |
You must be new to the D.C. area. |
This is nonsense. Suicidal ideation as a child or depression is not going to affect your security clearance. The real "danger" in these types of situations is untreated depression or anxiety. It's important for people to get help, and your comments increases the stigma associated with mental health. |
DP. She is not making this up. |
| I'm still waiting for ANY sort of evidence, link, citation, or documented occurrence of screener results impacting ability to apply for security clearances later in life. |
Takes one to know one. |
There isn't any. That person was full of shite. |
Yes she is. A social emotional learning screener that someone took in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL will not affect their ability to get a security clearance when they are 21+ years old. You don't deserve your security clearance if you believe this. Idiot. |

OMFG you are dumb.

This is an authorization for the investigator to ask your health practitioner(s) the questions below concerning your mental health consultations. The U.S. government recognizes the critical importance of mental health and advocates proactive management of mental health conditions to support the wellness and recovery of Federal employees and others. The government recognizes that mental health counseling and treatment may provide important support for those who have experienced traumatic events, as well as for those with other mental health conditions. While most individuals with mental health conditions do not present security risks, there may be times when such a condition can affect a person’s eligibility for a security clearance. Seeking or receiving mental health care for personal wellness and recovery may contribute favorably to decisions about your eligibility. Your signature will allow the practitioner(s) to answer only those questions identified below. Authorization I am seeking assignment to or retention in a national security sensitive position. As part of the investigative process, I hereby authorize the investigator, special agent, or duly accredited representative of the authorized Federal agency conducting my background investigation, reinvestigation, or ongoing evaluation (i.e., continuous evaluation) of eligibility for access to classified information or eligibility to hold a national security sensitive position to request, and my health practitioner(s) to provide, the information requested below, relating to my mental health consultations.

I understand that I may revoke this authorization, except to the extent that action has already been taken based on this authorization. Further, I understand that this authorization is voluntary. My treatment, payment, enrollment in a health plan, or eligibility for benefits will not be conditioned upon my authorization of this disclosure. I understand the information disclosed pursuant to this authorization for use by the Federal Government only for purposes provided in the Standard Form 86 will no longer be covered by the HIPAA Privacy Rule, and that the Federal Government may redisclose the information as authorized by law, subject to Privacy Act safeguards.
