The 7 Powers of A Limited Conservatorship
In California, there are three types of adult guardianship, which is a decision wrought with worry for all involved because it is a court proceeding that limits a person's rights. (Gloria recommends that each family consider supported decision making BEFORE ever reverting to a limited conservatorship.)
For a person with developmental disabilities in California, the adult guardianship process is called a "limited conservatorship" - because the court looks at several different powers and whether the proposed conservatee needs all seven powers limited, or just some of them.
Here, Gloria discusses the 7 powers of a limited conservatorship that the court will consider.
