Guardian ad Litem is recruiting volunteers in Jackson County! Guardian ad Litems (GALS) are court-appointed volunteers who serve abused and neglected children in the NC court system. GALs conduct independent investigations and advocate for the best interests of the child. A Guardian ad Litem serves as a child’s voice in court. If you have interest in becoming a volunteer and advocating for children, please visit volunteerforgal.org for additional information or contact Shannon Cowan at (828) 587-2087.
