He has a developmental disability (a term which encompasses things like mental retardation, autism, Down Syndrome, and others). The state is looking for a guardian for him because it's come out that he is not able to make his own decisions in matters pertaining to his support system, and the informal support he has been getting from people has been jeopardizing his health.
