THE GUARDIANSHIP PROCESS - 5 STAGES

Who is AASGAA – Australian Association to Stop Guardianship and Administration Abuse.

AASGAA is an incorporated Australian not-for-profit organisation, that provides free lived experiences on guardianship and administration matters.

Guardianship and administration also referred to as trustees, exist in all states and territories in Australia.

Australian Capital Territory (ACT), New South Wales (NSW), Northern Territory (NT), Queensland (Qld), South Australia (SA), Tasmania (Tas), Victoria (Vic), Western Australia (WA).

We highlight and inform Australians about the rights of people victimised under guardianship and administration. We advocate for select people, families, and carers to regain their decision-making back from the State.

We are not against guardianship and administration (trustee).

When state tribunals (who are NOT a court, and do NOT adhere to rules of evidence) get involved, what happens?

Who plays that role:

• State public guardian, who are paid, strangers.
• State public trustee , who are paid, strangers.
• State advocates, who are paid, strangers.
• Private guardian, not paid, family or friends.
• Private administration, not paid, family or friends.
• NDIS providers, paid. (Often claim pseudo guardian when public guardian/trustee claim authority over a person).
• Aged care, paid. (Often claim pseudo guardian when public guardian/trustee claim authority over a person).
• Child fostering.
• Medical staff claim authority, not given.
• Legal staff claim authority, not given.

We are a support group. We share stories, and offer support and information on ways to navigate the unsuspecting pitfalls of public guardianship and public administration (trustees).

We are not aligned with any political parties nor any other government organisations or political movements. We share information and knowledge with well known American groups such as NASGA (National Association to Stop Guardianship Abuse), and spokespersons on behalf of the late Marti Oakley.

Our core members undergo police clearance checks before advocating or supporting vulnerable people on behalf of AASGAA. 

Our secretary Christine Dalas has a current Working with Children Check and Police Clearance, with a no criminal record certificate. Ms. Dalas has never been arrested for any matters.

AASGAA has never been involved with organising anti-lockdown rallies.

When dealing with the vulnerable, AASGAA endeavors to ensure that those assisting are trustworthy, of good character, and free from conflicts of interest.

In other parts of the world, guardianship and administration are referred to differently (i.e conservatorship in the USA) but the core system and abuses are the same.
