Office of the Public Guardian
The Public Guardian is housed within the L.A. County Department of Mental Health. It provides a vital service to persons unable to care for themselves or who are unable to manage their finances. The service is provided through a legal process known as conservatorship. Persons in need of conservatorship are physically or mentally disabled to the point where they cannot utilize community services and resources. They usually have no family or friends able or willing to help.
