Guardianship task force focuses on reforming a broken system

From ABC Action News:

“Group plans to recommend legislative changes

LARGO, Fla. — A new statewide task force will soon make recommendations to improve Florida’s troubled guardianship system.

The ABC Action News I-Team has been exposing serious problems with guardianship in Florida for eight years…

Guardianship is the process in which judges remove rights from people who are determined to be incapacitated.

They can appoint family members, or even strangers, called professional guardians to manage their health, finances and personal affairs.”
