MonarchCare, Inc.

The personalized financial services of MonarchCare ensure clients’ safety and reduce their risk of exploitation, eviction, bankruptcy and/or homelessness.  Program services range from simple training in daily money management skills to formal appointment as payee or fiduciary.  The program also provides benefits counseling and application assistance to persons who may be unaware, confused or overwhelmed by the healthcare and/or financial system.  MonarchCare has worked in partnership with city community services programs providiing financial literacy one-on-one counseling, referrals, and workshops to families and seniors.

This program provides guardianship services to incapacitated persons, as well as support services to those serving as guardian for their family member or friend.  Sometimes the court appoints MonarchCare as legal guardian when families disagree, or the existing guardian must be removed.  Mostly, we serve individuals who have no one else willing or able to assist them with their health, financial or personal care needs.  Many consumers in this program also receive care management services.

MonarchCare is often the "trustee of last resort" when no financial institution wants to serve either due to the meager funds left in the trust or the challenges of dealing with the trust beneficiary and/or the family and friends of the beneficiary.
