CLASS FOR THE LPS CONSERVATORS


This Class is specifically for families whose love one is placed under the LPS Conservatorship either with you as the conservator or the public guardian as the conservator.  



DATE:  May 5, 2019 (Sunday)
TIME:  1:00 PM - 5:00 Pizza served at 5:00
PLACE:   Kaiser Permanent Hospital, 6041 Cadillac, Los Angeles, 90034,   Rooms B & C

REGISTRATION:   
Must call Gail Evanguelidi, 337-781-7609 to register

PURPOSE OF THE CLASS:
This class is specifically designed to provide guidance and knowledge for families who have a relative under the LPS Conservatorship.   Topics to be covered are LPS Conservatorship laws, powers granted to conservators, rights of   conservatee, rights of conservator, solutions for problems conservators encounter, and many other items that may help with the recovery of the conservatee.   The conservator may be the public guardian, a family member, a friend or a private conservator.   You should acquire the information needed to help your love one with their mental health recovery and hopefully reduce your stress level when you are empowered with this knowledge.

INSTRUCTORS :
The class will be taught by Gail Evanguelidi from NAMI Urban LA along with the Public Guardian's Office representatives Marie Guillaume, Marisela Vela and Leliana McCoy.
 
Gail Evanguelidi is a member of NAMI Urban LA.  She has walked the walk of the LPS Conservatorship three times, each time acquiring more information which has helped with the mental health recovery of her son.  Because of the lack of information for involuntary mental health recovery treatment, she developed the LPS Conservatorship Mentoring Programs.  The programs guide families and shares the information which we have learned from each other which provides the greatest probability for recovery for those with serious mental illness.  

Public Guardian's Office Representatives:
Marie Guillaume, Supervising Deputy Public Conservator/Administrator  
Marisela Vela, Senior Deputy Public Conservator/Administrator 
Leliana McCoy, Senior Deputy Public Conservator/Administrator
