This study conducts a comparative study on the perceptions of disabled child carers and officials on the Adult Guardianship System, and study the settlement method. First of all, 68.9% of the disabled child carers and 43.9% of the officials were aware of the system. Both the carers(90.2%) and officials(94.3%) responded that it was a helpful system for the respect for human rights. In terms of preferred guardian type, carers responded 'parents' and officials responded 'professionals'. All respondents responded that the 'establishment of national organization' was the most needed improvement of the system. In order for the Adult Guardianship System to stabilize as the system that can contribute to respect for human rights and social integration, promoting general public about the Adult Guardianship System, cultivate a high quality public guardian, the national organization of the Adult Guardianship System should be founded.
