Read the first 7 Client Advocacy flashcards as text

  1. A person under guardianship who still has the right to vote asks for help registering. What is the guardian's best response?

    Answer: Help the person register and get to the polls or vote by mail

    Guardians should help people use the rights they keep, including voting when the court hasn't removed that right.

  2. Which approach best reflects supported decision-making within guardianship practice?

    Answer: The person gets help understanding information and choices so they can make or take part in decisions

    Supported decision-making helps the person use their own judgment with assistance instead of having someone else decide for them.

  3. A school is not following the IEP of a 19-year-old under guardianship who is still eligible for special education. Which federal law gives the guardian a path to advocate?

    Answer: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)

    IDEA guarantees a free appropriate public education and provides procedural safeguards such as due-process hearings for students through age 21.

  4. A landlord refuses a reasonable accommodation, a grab bar, for a tenant under guardianship who has a disability. Which law most directly supports the guardian's advocacy?

    Answer: The Fair Housing Act

    The Fair Housing Act requires reasonable accommodations and allows reasonable modifications for tenants with disabilities.

  5. Why is it important for a guardian to keep written records of advocacy efforts?

    Answer: They show diligence, support appeals and complaints, and keep the court informed

    Records create a record of the guardian's advocacy and give evidence for appeals and court reporting.

  6. A person under guardianship prefers a group home in their hometown over a facility farther away that offers slightly better medical services. Neither option is unsafe. Which choice best follows NGA principles?

    Answer: The hometown group home, because it respects the person's preference and community ties

    When both options are safe, guardians should honor the person's preferences and the least restrictive, most community-integrated setting.

  7. Which statement about the rights of a person under guardianship is accurate?

    Answer: The person keeps every right the court hasn't specifically given to the guardian

    Under limited guardianship principles, the person keeps all rights the court order hasn't taken away.
