Supported Decision-Making: Less Restrictive Alternatives to Guardianship

Share

This free webinar explored Supported Decision-Making, a person-centered approach that helps individuals with disabilities or cognitive challenges keep their rights and make their own decisions with trusted support. Co-hosted with Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota, the session covered alternatives to guardianship, the types of guardianship and what rights each affects, how to evaluate whether guardianship is truly needed, and how restoration works for people seeking to regain their rights.

Presented by Katie Hestness, Education Navigator at Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota, and moderated by Sarah Sicheneder, Founder and Attorney at Everbright Legacy Law.
