Programa de asistencia para tutela mayor
A medida que nuestra población envejece, algunas personas mayores corren un riesgo cada vez mayor porque ya no son capaces de administrar sus propias finanzas o tomar sus propias decisiones.
Impact NW’s Senior Guardianship Assistance Program (Senior GAP) has been serving the community by providing court appointment protection of vulnerable seniors since 2004.
Senior GAP is staffed with nationally certified guardians who act as court appointed guardians and conservators. This program is a fee-for-service program and serves those vulnerable persons in both Washington and Multnomah counties.
A referral is required which can come from another social service agency, a bank, a family member, or other involved person who is concerned about a senior’s safety and well-being or financial exploitation.
Senior GAP also assists in acting as Power of Attorney, Personal Representative of the Estate, Trustee of various types, and Health Care Representative. These roles are considered pre-planning tools and an individual can self-refer and Senior GAP will be happy to meet with you to discuss if this is a good option for you in planning ahead.
To inquire about our services, please contact the Senior GAP office at: 503-294-7445.
Los Programas de Servicios para Personas Mayores de Impact NW respaldan la salud y la independencia de las personas mayores vulnerables, ayudándolas a permanecer en sus propios hogares, rodeadas por las comunidades con las que están familiarizados.
Anualmente, Senior GAP garantiza la independencia de casi 150 clientes vulnerables al mismo tiempo que los protege contra el abuso financiero, el descuido o el desalojo.
