Become a Volunteer

Volunteer Guardians ad Litem play a critical role in the child welfare system. Volunteers work with child welfare professionals, educators, and service providers to ensure that judges have the information they need to make well-informed decisions for each child and that the needs and best interests of that child are fully represented.

In an often over-burdened system, these volunteers are essential to serving the kids and families in our state and as an organization, we are dedicated to supporting volunteer advocacy for abused and neglected children in our child protection court system.
