The Guardianship Alliance of Colorado is a nonprofit organization which is recognized statewide in Colorado as the resource for information, assistance and coordination concerning guardianship, conservatorship and related matters for adults.
It is not affiliated with any other organization. We do not have affiliates in other states and are not aware of similar organizations elsewhere. If there are any, we would like very much to hear from them.
The Guardianship Alliance of Colorado believes that all persons are entitled to lives of respect and dignity with freedom to exercise their rights and make their own decisions to the fullest extent of their abilities. The mission of the Alliance is to assure that these rights are protected and that appropriate decision-making support is available to adults in Colorado with seriously impaired decision-making capacity.
To improve the statewide system in Colorado that provides and monitors guardianship and conservatorship appointments for adults.
To assure that when guardianship and conservatorship are necessary for adults they are of the highest quality.
To prevent the need for guardianship and conservatorship by encouraging the establishment of Advance Directives (the Living Will and Durable Powers of Attorney) by all capable adults in Colorado.
