CHILDREN IN YOUR COMMUNITY NEED YOUR HELP! They are the innocent victims of abuse, abandonment, and/or neglect. You can make a huge difference in their academic life, personal self worth, and their potential to flourish into contributing adults. They need to know someone truly cares. Can you be that person?
With 8 flexible hours a month you can accomplish that! Our children need to have advocates who have only their best interest at heart. No specialized skills or education is required. All you need is the willingness to help a child in need. We provide training and mentors for you.

Mission Statement
Guardian ad Litem is a volunteer based organization who's purpose is to look after the "best interest" of children who have been removed from their home due to abuse and neglect.

If you have a passion for making a lifelong difference in a child's life please consider becoming a Guardian ad Litem Volunteer Child Advocate. Child Advocates are trained and supported volunteers who are assigned a child (or sibling group) and learn about the children and those that are central to the child's life and advocate for both short and long term successes. We visit the child to make sure that their needs are being met and we advocate for their best interest in.
