Title 8 guardianship petitions offer a stable placement for children involved in the dependency system, without resulting in the termination of parental rights. However, Title 8 guardianships lack many of the benefits of adoption, such as legal permanency and the child&#8217;s eligibility for the Arizona Adoption Subsidy.
