Too often, discussions about guardianship issues are limited to the legal options, requirements, or processes to obtain guardianship. Practical Approaches to Guardianship Issues explored the overlap between guardianship and the everyday issues that occur in the lives of individuals with intellectual and other developmental disabilities.

Topics included:

• • Types of guardianship

• • The balancing act between autonomy and independence

• • How to approach and work with service providers, health care professionals, employers, government workers and support coordinators

• • Practical considerations for interacting with employers and other agencies
