IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Expansion to Jackson and Clatsop Counties
Guardian Partners is pleased to announce the expansion of our programs into Clatsop County, effective February 1, 2023. The addition of Clatsop County to the organization’s service area – along with the September 2022 implementation in Jackson County – means that Guardian Partners now serves nine Oregon counties, representing 59% of state residents.
When members of our community require a guardian or conservator to make decisions for them or manage their financial needs, we want to be sure they have the information they need to do so effectively. Guardian Partners provides education for those who are willing to take on the challenges of providing that assistance. They also provide us, as a court, with the ability to have monitors check in to be sure a protected person’s needs are being met. We’re glad to partner with them to provide this valuable service to our community.
– Hon. Dawn McIntosh, Clatsop County Circuit Court
Guardian Partners has already monitored a number of guardianships in Jackson County and is preparing to monitor its first two cases from Clatsop County. We are seeking local volunteer case monitors in both regions. Contact Monitoring Program Manager Jeni Bennett to get involved: jeni@guardian-partners.org.
