Perkins School for the Blind Four-Part Guardianship Series – Part 1: Self-Determination and Legal Considerations
June 4 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT
Free
Age of majority is the transition from childhood to adulthood, and an important benchmark for individuals with disabilities. The age of majority is 18 in most states. If individuals are their own guardian, they are legally responsible for their life actions in areas of finance, healthcare and education.
In this first workshop in our four-part series on Guardianship, we’ll have a conversation about the key aspects of coming of age and explore how we can support individuals in being self-determined with the least restrictions, with safeguards in place.
Guest Speaker: Heather Connors, Executive Director, The Center for Guardianship Excellence
Date: June 4, 2024
Time: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm (Eastern Time)
Registration and more information: Perkins.org/GuardianshipSeries
