Any person interested in an individual’s welfare may contact the Office of the Public Guardian for assistance. 

• The person will be requested to complete an intake form and will meet with a social worker or the Public Guardian to discuss the matter. 

• An assessment will be done to determine the kind of and extent of services needed. 

• The Office of the Public Guardian will make referrals to other agencies or organizations as appropriate after completing the intake process. 

• In the event that the problem presented is not within the scope of work the Office of the Public Guardian handles or the office is not able to assist, a referral will be made to an appropriate agency or to the Lawyer Referral Service of the Guam Bar Association.
