Mission

Brazos Bend Guardianship Services exists to connect with and deliver guardian services, education, and support to protect the most vulnerable.

Corporate Guardianship Program. BBGS is legally appointed by the courts to serve as the legal guardian of incapacitated adults when no family member is willing or qualified to serve as his/her legal guardian. Our role is to ensure the overall well being of the person under our guardianship by monitoring the quality of care they receive and making the best decisions for their housing, medical, clothing, nutritional and other needs. We also oversee the appropriate management of the person's funds, and make regular visits to help prevent any mistreatment or abuse. BBGS staff is on call 24/7 with the program.

Expenses $210,852
Guardian Assistance Program. BBGS provides an assistance program to help families that are up to 250% above the poverty level. The avg. cost for a family to obtain guardianship is $2500. This is cost prohibitive for many families. To qualify for this program, a family must submit an application and provide proof of income. The assistance program is a scholarship program and we are able to offer because of a partnering with some attorneys who've agreed to represent the potential guardian for a reduced rate.

Expenses $28,634
Guardianship Information Sessions. BBGS hosts free regular information sessions in the community to help educate families about obtaining legal guardianship of an incapacitated loved one. Why guardianship may be necessary, the steps involved in obtaining guardianship, a guardian's role, and alternatives to guardianship is explained during these sessions. BBGS also discusses the Guardianship Assistance Program available and how families can apply. An attorney is present at these sessions to answer any legal questions the attendees may have.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
