| The members of SerraWeiss have published "Surrogate Decision Making...A Roadmap to Making Decisions for Those with Diminished Capacity." This comprehensive manual was prepared specifically for individuals with disabilities and their families. The manual addresses the various options for surrogate decision making fundamentally from a civil rights perspective. Such topics discussed are "A Surrogate Does not Always Mean A Guardian" and "Limited Guardianships," including case studies of limited guardianship. We have received a very positive response from the disability community at large, from both professionals working with families and individuals, as well as from consumers themselves. If you would like a complementary copy of this manual, you can e-mail us at nina@serraweiss.com or tony@serraweiss.com or you can call 609-303-0270. |
