Supported Decision Making & Guardianship
If you are looking for assistance with guardianship, we suggest you contact Advocacy and Protective Services, Inc., a not-for-profit organization that advocates for outcomes that promote dignity, respect, and enhanced quality of life for individual persons with developmental disabilities. They have expertise in guardianship and alternatives to guardianship.
You can also contact the Probate Court in the county where the person lives to learn about the guardianship process. You can find the contact information for each county here: https://ohio.gov/government/resources/ohio-courts.
