PUBLIC GUARDIAN, COUNTY OF SANTA CRUZ HUMAN SERVICES DEPARTMENT ADULT AND LONG-TERM CARE

Did this help?

• Description:

  The County Of Santa Cruz Human Services Department's Public Guardian manages the property, finances and personal care needs of county individuals who are substantially unable to provide for themselves. This is accomplished through conservatorships. If you are concerned about the well-being of an individual who is elderly and unable to provide for or manage their personal needs, or who is gravely disabled as a result of a mental disorder and unable to provide for their basic necessities, you can make a referral to the Public Guardian to investigate the need for a conservator.
