Upon turning age 18, all children – including children with disabilities - legally are considered an “adult.” For children with disabilities, this also means that there is a transfer of rights from parent to child. . Adult guardianship is specific to an adult who needs to have someone legally assigned to make decisions for them (legal guardianship). Adults can lose capacity because of an accident, illness or old age. If an adult doesn’t have a Personal Directive and loses the capacity to make decisions, they will need someone to apply for legal guardianship in Alberta. Legal guardianship may also be required when a minor with a developmental disability becomes an adult. This process can be daunting and stressful, and working with guardianship lawyers from the start is a good idea By: Barbara Stone, MPA. Registered Professional Guardian.
