Abstract:
Adult guardian ad litem programs are a necessary public service to protect adults from abuse and neglect.

Our experience highlights the vital role of diverse inter-sectoral stakeholders. Furthermore, the development process highlights the need for flexibility in program development, tension negotiation among stakeholders, and engagement of aging stakeholders in nontraditional arenas.
