Re: Privacy Regulation 

Dear Administrator Hyde, 

I am writing to let you know how important it is to me and my family that the privacy 

protection for alcohol and drug abuse patient act be maintained. I am a person in recovery 

from addiction and I also have a criminal record. While I take the responsibility for the 

actions I took that resulted in my addiction treatment and criminal record, I do not want my 

addiction treatment record to become a lifelong burden. 

I understand some have argued that good medical care for me will be compromised if all 

medical professionals cannot see my addiction treatment records. I think in this day and age 

with all of the technological advances that software companies can figure out how to keep 

that information available for those who must see it and unavailable to those who don’t need 

to see it. 

The threat to me and people like me is to great to risk doing away with these essential 

privacy protection. People like me already have enough of the odds stacked against us. I do 

not want to risk

Re: Privacy Regulations 

Dear Admin Hyde, 

I just want you to know how important it is for me and my family that our privacy rights 

concerning drug and alcohol treatment be privatized. My family has a great name and if you 

can help me help them I would be indebted to you indefinitely. 

Thank you for all your consideration.

RE: Privacy Rights 

Dear Admin Hyde, 

I humbly write you now to consider protecting my addiction records so that I one day may be 

of service to my fellow man. I have been clean for three years and still have trouble receiving 

a job because of past convictions. 

Please see it fit to help me in protecting my addiction rights and I will prove myself to be. 

I cannot thank you enough!

I am not for having my drug treatment records available for all to see. 

I think it will cause a lot of discrimination and could cause trouble for my family or to my 

job. Please consider that I am a person like anyone else and make mistakes. I don’t want 

something I’ve gotten help for to actually hinder me in my life.

Dear Administrator Hyde, 

I am an inmate at Richmond’s Regional Jail because I used medications and alcohol 

everyday for a period of seven years. While I am business graduate from Virginia 

Commonwealth University, my addiction has cost many job opportunities and absentees in 

the work place. I do not wish to continue on my current path of self-destruction anymore as I 

am already thirty three years of age and still don’t have a wife, family, or any assets of value 

whatsoever. 

On account of my family and for my families name sake I genuinely ask that my privacy 

rights concerning my addiction be protected. I don’t want to be a hindrance anymore to my 

family or society. I know one day upon my release that I will be something better if not 

outstanding member in society for the benefit of humanity. 

Administrator Hyde, I beg that you can see it fit to give me a chance by protecting my 

addiction records. 

Thank you. Sincerely 
IT

Dear Administrator Hyde 

I am writing you to let you know how important it is to me and my family that the 

privacy regulation you are working on is very very important to us. 

As a person that falls under this issue I surely don’t want to in up losing my children job 

or hosing as a result of someone with power saying I must do so as a result of them 

disagreeing with my treatment record about my using alcohol & drugs. 

Thank you for wanting to support my best intent in this matter.

Dear Administrator Hyde: 

I am writing regarding the privacy protections for alcohol and drug abuse patient records. I 

think that any records pertaining to a persons treatment for drug and or alcohol abuse should 

remain privileged and confidential. At no time should this information be released without 

the express written consent of the patient. I believe that if this information were readily 

available, certain groups, institutions, companies, or individuals may be in a position to use 

this information to the detriment of the patient. While this should be enough of a reason for 

the patient’s records to remain confidential, I feel there may be a reason of much more 

importance. 

The purpose of treatment is to save lives, not just from death; but from misery. I sincerely 

believe that many addicts/alcoholics may be deterred from seeking treatment if the records 

for such treatment could be accessed without their consent. This would certainly outweigh 

any possible benefits that would come from the sharing of these records.

Dear Admin Hyde, 

I humbly write you now to highly consider protecting my rights and those of our fellow man 

regarding their drug and alcohol abuse. The men I know serve with in Richmonds Regional 

Jail (especially those in G5’s program tier concerning AA treatment) all want to abstain from 

the downfalls in which drugs have placed their lives in, otherwise they would not be so 

sincere about receiving treatment to enhance their recovery. 

Admin Hyde, please help us in any way possible to protect our privacy rights concerning our 

addictions. 

Many thanks,

Dear Administrator Hyde 

I am in support of you helping to place regulations on treatment records pertaining to 

“Treatment Records” for people like me that have histories of alcohol & drug abuse.

people to past judgment on me with intentions of taking my children, my jobs or cause me to 

lose housing arrangements.

Re: Privacy Rights 

Dear Admin Hyde, 

Please consider the burden of my record that is placed on me when job seeking and the odds 

that I face applying for an apt or even a credit card today, less a bank acct. 

I am not crying poor mouth and I have not been victimized in any way. What I have done 

and the actions I performed I may never be forgiven by God for, but I beg you to give me one 

more chance in this life by helping keep my addiction records confidential. 

Truly yours,

Dear Administrator Hyde, 

I take pleasure in supporting this petition that will help protect my treatment records 

about my alcohol and drug usage being reveal to people who might use that information

could change. 

People like me already have enough odds stacked against us. 

Yes, I support you very much

RE: Privacy Regulations 

Dear Administrative Hyde, 

I write to you now in hopes that you would consider my privacy rights, particularly my 

addiction records. I am a person in recovery from addiction and I also have a criminal record 

unfortunately. 

Today I am not only taking responsibility for my addiction while being a recovered 

addict for three years now, but I aim to be a productive member of society one day upon my 

release. Jobs are all ready hard to come by being a past felon and any hindrance I could avoid 

otherwise will only benefit the outcome of my success. 

Thank you for all your consideration, 

Sincerely

Dear Administrative Hyde 

I am writing to let you know that it is important to me and my family that the privacy

I do not wish to be single out just because my records says “I used” so therefore I should 

suffer some type of consequences. Be that lost of my children, my job or my housing 

situation. 

I hope this letter will help the cause.

Dear Administrator Hyde, 

It is our pleasure at the Regional Jail of Richmond VA to thank you for your servitude in the 

consideration of the concealment of our addiction records. 

We humbly come to and ask that you help us men by doing so. I cannot speak for these 

men but I know many of them never had a chance being born in drug infested homes and 

alcoholic families. 

However, I have seen man a men recover in the treatment the jail provides and in 

following the steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. With you help these men I believe can prevail 

and earnestly seek to be better men. 

Thank you for reading and all you do! 

Sincerely,

Dear Administrator Hyde,

I understand some of the arguments concerning the pro & cons of this debate. I can’t 

agree with compromising my person information about my addiction, so that other with no 

interest in helping be aloud to review my treatment records the consequences could be heavy 

toward me lost of children, lost of job or housing. 

Administrator Hyde, I hope you will do all you can to protect the privacy of my addiction

Dear Ms. Hyde, 

I am writing to let you know that I do not approve of having treatment records of 

alcoholics and addicts made public. I think those of us suffering from addiction already face 

enough hardship we do not need any additional stigma when it come to addiction. 

Housing and jobs are hard enough to come by as it is 

Please do all you can to see this does not happen. 

Thank you.
