Guardianship for Adults 
This is the story of Brianna Watts and her father, Melvin Watts. Brianna was born with a severe form on cerebral palsy. Melvin became her court-appointed legal guardian when Brianna was 20 years old. A guardianship is for adults who need someone else to make life decisions for them.
Supported Decision Making 
This is the story of Colby Spangler, his mother Kim Spangler, and Colby’s supporters. Colby was born with cerebral palsy. He has been able to rely on a system of supported decision-making instead of having a court-appointed guardian. Supported decision-making is a legal and social concept in which an individual remains at the center for the decision-making process, consulting with a network of supporters.
