Description
The VGP trains and matches volunteers who become the "Guardian of the Person Only" or substitute decision-maker for individuals with no money, or family support, and whose ability to make personal & medical decisions has diminished.
Those served usually live in a nursing home, group home, or other protected setting.
It is the volunteer's goal to enhance the equality of life for the person served by advocating for the best possible daily & medical care.
Someone needs you....because not everyone has someone.
The VGP also serves Delaware, Fairfield, Franklin & Pickaway Counties.
