The Battered Women's Justice Project, in partnership with NCJFCJ, has created an online peer to peer forum for Guardians ad Litem. Do you serve as a Guardian ad Litem (GAL)? Are you an attorney or advocate who works with GALs? Guardians ad litem serve the best interests of the children in family court proceedings, as well as civil protection order cases. Their reports and recommendations to the court carry a lot of weight - but what happens when the recommendations don't serve the best interest of the children and victim-parent? In this peer to peer forum, instructors will facilitate a discussion around GAL emerging issues, best practices, and steps to improve outcomes for children and victim-parents when working with appointed GALs.
