Become a powerful advocate on behalf of children who are abused, abandoned and/or neglected. The Guardian ad Litem Program offers various pro bono opportunities for representing the interests of children. For example, advocating for a teen to ensure he/she receive all entitled benefits in preparation for adulthood. An attorney may also represent a child in a regular attorney-client relationship as an attorney ad litem by utilizing their area of expertise in special education, guardianship, probate, immigration, and juvenile deliquency.
