Description
|
Funds public appointed guardians for individuals with an intellectual disability, who have been determined to be incapacitated. The Public Guardian and Conservator Program protects the Commonwealth’s most vulnerable citizens who are indigent, have been adjudicated as incapacitated, and have no one who is willing or able to serve as their guardian. Once appointed, a public guardian usually serves for the life of the adult. In order to move an individual from a training center setting, they must have an assigned decision maker. This funding will support 100 individuals in FY 2017 and a total of 195 individuals in FY 2018 who are residing in training centers but do not have an assigned guardian. |
