Boundary
Public documentation and fictional practice now; separately reviewed education operational boundary in future.
Goal
Support a Young Person's Education Goal while maintaining choice, purpose limitation and accountable human review.
Value
Do not equate referral with education completion.
Trigger
Review the youth-selected education goal.
Scope
The stated participant task only; no unrelated records, new authority or automatic operational activation.
Assumptions
  • Covenant House validates program fit, ownership and relevant policies.
  • Required provider, staffing and data-quality evidence is established before operation.
Supporting Actors
  • Specialist program owner
  • Young person
  • Governance and safeguarding reviewer
Preconditions
  • Verified provisioned identity, current MFA, organization/site/project and assignment scope.
  • Current voluntary consent for the selected goal; private reflections excluded.
  • Required organizational and human approval for operational behavior; absent in this public specification.
  • Operational services, recovery readiness and separately approved testing remain dependencies.
Alternatives
  • Id

    At
    3
    Condition
    The participant chooses a different suitable option.
    Path
    Return to discuss ged, school or training preferences, check scope and consent again, and document the revised purpose; do not duplicate evidence.
  • Id
    UC-EDU-001-ALT-02
    At
    6
    Condition
    An eligible alternative channel or resource is reviewed.
    Path
    Reassess the education provider and required human approval; continue only with minimum authorized information. Public exploration may continue without an account.
Exceptions
  • Id
    UC-EDU-001-EX-01
    Condition
    Authorization denied, expired or revoked.
    Response
    Stop the restricted step and provide no record readback; review access through qualified authority, never public self-selection.
  • Id
    UC-EDU-001-EX-02
    Condition
    Missing information, conflicting evidence or unavailable service.
    Response
    Hold the relevant state for human review. Do not fabricate capacity, receipt, attendance, outcomes or successful submission.
  • Id
    UC-EDU-001-EX-03
    Condition
    Consent withdrawn or a safeguarding issue raised.
    Response
    Stop optional disclosure; qualified humans apply the reviewed lawful safeguarding policy. The prototype sends no escalation.
Postconditions
Success
Do not equate referral with education completion.
Failure
No unauthorized disclosure, authority grant or claimed fulfillment; public practice remains temporary and operational tasks remain blocked.

Business rules

BR-MIN · Minimum necessary information

Share only the task-relevant approved context. Private reflections never enter public staff demonstrations.

BR-TRUTH · Evidence before claims

A referral is not delivery; documentation and storyboard completion are not verification or approval.

BR-CONSENT · Youth choice and selected sharing

Only an explicitly selected goal projection may be shared; youth control approval and goal completion. Withdrawal stops optional disclosure.

BR-SCOPE · Current scoped authority

Verified identity, permission, organization/site/project and assignment scope are separate. Privileged access requires independent approvals, MFA and launch review; no public self-grant.

BR-HUMAN · Qualified human accountability

Qualified humans decide triage, clinical, safeguarding, assistance and operational approvals; the guide cannot make those decisions.
