📢Attention Families! 📢 As part of our support for young adults with disabilities and families, we would like to invite you to a FREE Supported Decision-Making Clinic (Guardianship) on January 18th at 3 pm OR 4:30 pm CST (two sessions available). Limited registration to 20 families.

This clinic is in partnership with the University of Texas Law School as they provide free one-on-one consultations with attorneys to discuss guardianship options such as the Supported Decision-Making Agreements (SDMAs). SDMAs are free alternatives to guardianship that help people retain their autonomy and independence while enjoying the support of loved ones.

If you and your family are interested in this free consultation, please register before December 31: https://unt.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cTslCjQCATAKjQx
