Mentor a foster youth today!

The Florida Statewide Guardian ad Litem Office represents abused, abandoned and neglected children in court and the community. Through the collaboration of a multi-disciplinary team that always includes a Guardian ad Litem Attorney, child welfare professional, and hopefully a trained volunteer or pro bono attorney from the child’s community, our team provides quality, independent legal representation for abused, neglected, and abandoned children while assisting the child in expressing their needs and wishes. Our unique approach allows us to support the whole child, addressing their physical, educational, mental, emotional, social, and legal needs.

As a mentor you will:

• Assist and guide the youth to have an enhanced quality of life with the ability to thrive by identifying their unique and immediate barriers to prosperity, developing long-term goals, and assisting with mapping out a strategic plan. If barriers exist, connect the youth with a Hope Navigator.
• Provide the youth guidance, motivation, emotional support, role modeling, and identifying resources.
• Function as the go-to person for the youth as they transition into adulthood.
