Are you part of an organization big or small? We would love to join you and share about the impact of Guardian ad Litem and how others can join.

If you are part of a community group, book club, religious organization, or professional setting that is interested in making a difference in the lives of children in foster care, reach out to our office and we will find a time to share how you can get involved.

We are also on the lookout for community events where we can set up an information booth to help spread the word.

15 people can help close the gap!

Cleveland County GAL is currently representing 170 children in foster care in Cleveland County. 34 children, 20%, do not have a GAL Volunteer assigned to them. While these children are still seen and advocated for by staff, it is not to the level that a volunteer is able to do. To help close this gap, we need 15 people to join out February training.

Training Details:
📌Feb. 12-March 19, 2026
📌Thursdays, 6:00-8:30pm
📌Sessions held virtually
