Hosts Megan (Smallwood) and Patrick (Cadigan) take another rung on the ladder; this time the discussion focuses on guardianship. They introduce the two types of guardianship, discuss possible questions families should consider and the how guardianship effects personal decision-making.
DISCLAIMER: This is not designed or intended as legal advice. Guardianship is just one of many tools in the transition toolbox; families need to do the research and may consider alternatives before making a final decision.
