In California, many special need families struggle to care for adults who are not able to care for themselves. For these families, a court-approved conservatorship may help. A probate conservatorship allows a responsible person or organization to receive legal powers to provide for the care, needs and protection of their loves ones after 18 years old. This information session raises awareness and educates the public about conservatorship as a legal process available to families.

En California, muchas familias con necesidades especiales luchan para cuidar a los adultos que no pueden cuidarse a sí mismos. Para estas familias, una tutela aprobada por la corte puede ayudar. Una tutela testamentaria le permite a una persona u organización responsable a recibir poderes legales para proveer el cuidado, las necesidades y la protección de sus seres queridos después de los 18 años. Esta sesión informativa crea conciencia y educa al público sobre la tutela como un proceso legal disponible para las familias.
