More about
GAP Services

The mission of GAP is to assist caregivers/parents of developmentally disabled young adults in obtaining legal guardianship. We understand that you have taken care of this person all of his or her life or need to now and that nothing has changed for you once this person reaches the age of 18. However, under New Jersey law this person is vested with certain constitutional rights once they attain age 18 regardless of the disability. A legal guardianship is required in order to allow you, the parent/ caregiver to continue in your role as decision-maker.
