Request for approval to be a 2026 Texas Guardianship Association Conference sponsor using special revenue funds in the amount of $2,900.

Sponsoring this statewide conference lets Harris County connect with experts, share best practices, and stay current on guardianship law and support services.

This is a formal vote item (File 26-3741) introduced on May 29, 2026. If approved, $2,900 from special revenue funds will go toward sponsoring the 2026 Texas Guardianship Association Conference. The Texas Guardianship Association brings together courts, nonprofits, and advocates who work on adult guardianship across the state.
