Public Trustee and Guardian

The Public Trustee’s mandate is to administer trusts on behalf of minors and estates and trusts of Nunavummiut who die without a will or are in need of protection because of disability. The Office actively pursues benefits to which its clients may be entitled, such as Registered Disability Savings Plans and claims settlements in class action suits.

The Public Guardian’s mandate includes guardianship of adult persons who are incapable of managing their personal affairs. This is accomplished by making decisions for their health and personal care in close consultation with the clients and their families.
