Reforming Adult Guardianship Through WINGS (July 23, 2019)

webinar recording

Protecting the rights of adults subject to – or potentially subject to – guardianship is among the most complex and controversial challenges elder justice advocates face.  It involves balancing the rights and autonomy of these adults with society’s obligation to protect individuals unable to protect themselves.
 
Working Interdisciplinary Networks of Guardianship Stakeholders (WINGS) are ongoing court-stakeholder partnerships to drive changes in guardianship policy and practice, promote less restrictive options , and address guardianship abuse.  Under the leadership of the court, WINGS bring together a multidisciplinary array of stakeholders from diverse agencies to prioritize key issues and work collectively toward their resolution.  In 2016, the American Bar Association Commission on Law and Aging, with the National Center for State Courts, received an Elder Justice Innovation Grant from the U.S. Administration on Community Living (ACL) to establish, expand, and enhance state WINGS.  A panel of representatives from the ABA Commission and state WINGS will showcase their work and direct participants to resources and promising strategies.

Panelists are:


Erica Wood, Assistant Director, American Bar Association Commission on Law and Aging
Dari Pogach, Staff Attorney, American Bar Association Commission on Law and Aging 
Nanci Thaemert, Senior Manager, Court Services for Families and Children, Idaho Supreme Court
Jennifer N. Taylor, Financial Exploitation Attorney, Legal Aid of West Virginia

This National Elder Justice Advocates Academy webinar was hosted by CEJC with support from the Huguette Clark Family Fund for the Protection of Elders.
