About Kentucky Guardianship Association
Membership is open to anyone with interest in adult guardianship. We seek to improve guardianship by developing training for persons appointed to serve as a guardian of an adult with a disability, training for persons seeking to be appointed as guardian, attorneys representing alleged incapacitated persons, and professionals including social workers, psychologists, and medical personnel, appointed to interdisciplinary evaluation teams for the purpose of evaluating the capacity of adults responding to a petition for appointment of a guardian or conservator.
The KGA was founded on the principle of improving the practice of adult guardianship in Kentucky by promoting practices that protect the Constitutional rights and autonomy of persons with disabilities.
We hold regular meetings and trainings in Kentucky about topics related to guardianship.
