Ethics Info

Intro to File Ethical Report Page
When a situation arises involving questionable ethics, the ADTA encourages those involved to explore and attempt to resolve it by talking to one another and sharing perspectives, understanding, and lived experiences before contacting the Standards & Ethics Committee for support. The ADTA Standards & Ethics Committee offers support if resolution cannot be achieved through conversation or when a conversation isn’t feasible due to extenuating circumstances.

From here, you are guided to complete a contact form for one of the four levels of support needed, as listed below. Either the Standard & Ethics Committee (S&E) or the Dance/Movement Therapy Certification Board will review your case accordingly. Please read the Procedures on “How to Resolve Situations Involving Questionable Ethics” (2022) and the current ADTA Code of Ethics by downloading the PDF files below
