Planning for Speciual Needs Individuals
Decisions about guardianship or the other alternatives should not be considered based on your child’s diagnostic label, but rather on the individual strengths and specific needs of your child. If your child only needs assistance with financial issues, then you should consider conservatorship. If your child does require guardianship, the least restrictive option should be considered first.
Person-centered planning is a great way to sort out your child’s needs, identify their strengths, and make plans for their future. A group of people who know and care about the person, and especially the individual with a disability, should be involved in making the decisions about what kinds of safeguards should be implemented. This process allows for any decisions made to be reconsidered when needed and with the people who know and care about your child the most.
