Easter Seals Arc and the Volunteer Lawyer Program of Northeast Indiana are working together to host an informational forum on the ins and outs of guardianships in relation to those with special needs. This event will be held in the meeting rooms of the Allen County Public Library, in downtown Fort Wayne, on Tuesday, June 16, from 6 – 7:30 p.m. There is no cost to attend.

Attendees will become familiar with:
• Why parents sometimes need to establish guardianship of their children

Thank you - I will email them and see what they're doing about guardianship abuse -- the "outs".
Guardianship and Conservatorship is too easy to get IN to and almost impossible to get get OUT of.
Beware when the insiders want to "help" you.
Yes, this is an info-mercial to draw victims in, I'm afraid.
