People who had never heard of adult guardianship are both shocked and outraged that this abuse could and does happen in America to our elderly and adults with disabilities.
This excellent film documents that John Savanovich was targeted because of his age and because he was alone. People are reaching out to NASGA and wanting to help him.
We suggest the best way to help John is to show him that people care about what happened to him --- and that he is not alone. So, we ask anyone who would like to help him to send him a card. A deluge of cards will brighten and strengthen his spirit and surely give him an ear-to-ear smile too!
