Volunteer to provide wellness checks for adults under guardianship!
Guardian Partners is a volunteer-based nonprofit offering education, resources, and oversight for our disabled and senior communities who are under guardianship. Our goal is to ensure the dignity, self-determination, and safety of adults under guardianship. We also strive to share resources to improve the quality of life of the individual under guardianship, as well as resources that can support the Guardian in their role.
Volunteer Case Monitors receive extensive training, ongoing staff support and will complete background checks. Case Monitors are court ordered to meet with the adult under guardianship in their place of residence, interview their guardian and other professionals, and furnish a report to the Probate Court identifying any concerns as well as any recommendations or interventions (if needed).
- Volunteering is highly flexible - scheduled on your time at your convenience!
- Volunteers commit to a minimum of 10 case reviews.
- Typical cases require 5-10 hours of time.
- No specific professional background required. Although some of our volunteers have experience in social work or the legal field, such experience is not required to be considered as a volunteer.
