| NOTE: Guardianships are often handled in probate court. But if a child is a dependent of the juvenile court, only the juvenile court can appoint a legal guardian for the child. If the child in your case is a dependent of the juvenile court, go to the Juvenile Court Guardianship section of the Self-Help Center. |
Caregiver's Authorization Affidavit
Someone who's related to a child can fill out a form called a "caregiver's authorization affidavit." This lets that person sign up the child for school and get medical treatment for the child. A non-relative who fills out a caregiver's authorization affidavit can sign up a child for school and agree to school-related medical care.
