    We urge extreme caution in any move to strip San Jose residents of their civil rights. As practiced throughout California, conservatorship proceedings largely disregard due process of law. Once conservatorship is imposed, courts provide little oversight and essentially no accountability.

    In Santa Clara County, there is a long history the Public Guardian and San Andreas Regional Center abusing conservatees. Law enforcement often turns a blind eye.

    We are strong supporters of Laura’s Law and feel the City of San Jose should advocate for Laura’s Law to be implemented by the Santa Clara County.
