SUMMARY:Provincial Learning Event Webinar: The Role of the Public Guardian and Trustee
DESCRIPTION:Register now. \nJoin us for a February Provincial Learning Event focused on the role of the Public Guardian and Trustee (PGT) of British Columbia in protecting vulnerable adults. This session will explore the services provided by the PGT to adults who may need support with personal\, legal\, and financial decision-making when no other decision makers are available. Participants will also gain an understanding of the PGT’s responsibility to investigate reports of financial abuse\, neglect\, and self-neglect\, as well as the legislative framework that guides this work and the potential outcomes of PGT investigations. \nGrainne Sheridan has worked at the PGT in the Services to Adults division for the last 15 years and has spent the last 3 years working as Regional Consultant reviewing referrals to the PGT to determine if further PGT services are required.  Grainne previously worked as a case manager\, assisting adults who require assistance with financial decision making.  Grainne has a Masters of Social Work and grew up on Ts’msyen territory\, in Terrace\, BC.  She currently lives and works on the unceded\, ancestral and traditional territories of the Musqueam\, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. \nAngelina Gordon has worked at the Public Guardian and Trustee’s office for the last 20 years.  In the role of the Director of Adult Guardianship and Community Engagement in Services to Adults\, she has\, focused on building strong connections with partners\, government organizations and community groups\, with a particular interest in learning from and engaging with indigenous partners in the work of the PGT.  Her previous work centered on working with and on behalf of children and youth in and from care. She is grateful to live on the unceded and ancestral territory of the Musqueam\, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. \nWhether you are a CRN member\, community partner\, or professional supporting vulnerable adults\, this session will provide valuable insight into the PGT’s role\, authority\, and how this work intersects with community-based responses to abuse and neglect. \n\nPresented by: \n\nGrainne Sheridan & Angelina Gordon – Public Guardian and Trustee of BC
