Training Library
This training library includes free, on demand videos and interactive tools on multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) and adult protection. Because the project funding originally focused on older adults, that is where our work began in compiling the trainings in this library. Over time, we are working to expand expanded the trainings and tools available through the Adult Protection Network to address concerns facing other adult populations as well. Although focused on older adults, these trainings should be useful for officials who work with all adults in need of protection, including disabled adults and incompetent adults.
Session Law 2023-124 creates the new G.S. 35A-1117 which entitles respondents and wards to notice of nearly twenty enumerated rights. With this notice of rights comes new responsibilities for guardians ad litem, clerks of court, and petitioners. In this webinar, we will anticipate challenges and consider solutions to satisfy the requirements and purpose of the law.
Recent changes to North Carolina’s guardianship laws make clear that an adult or emancipated minor does not lack capacity (and is therefore not incompetent) if a less restrictive alternative to guardianship enables them to manage their affairs and make and communicate important decisions about themselves and their property.
