Del. Code tit. 31 § 3901
Current through 2024 Legislative Session Act Chapter 531
The General Assembly recognizes that many adult citizens of this State are subject to psychological or physical injury or exploitation because of physical or mental disability, impairment, illness or condition, or other causes which render them incapable of providing for their basic daily living needs. The General Assembly, therefore, intends through this chapter to establish a system of services for impaired or incapacitated adults designed to protect their health, safety, and welfare. The intent is to authorize only the least possible restrictions on the exercise of personal and civil rights, and that restrictions are permitted only when consistent with proven need for services.
