Guardian ad Litem Program

The Guardian ad Litem (GAL) Program involves trained volunteers who advocate for the best interests of children involved in court cases, such as custody or abuse proceedings. They investigate the child's circumstances, speak with involved parties, and make recommendations to the court to ensure the child's needs and safety are prioritized. The GAL acts as an independent voice for the child, helping the court make informed decisions that promote their well-being. Their role is essential in safeguarding children's rights and ensuring they receive appropriate protection, support, and stability during legal processes.
