This interactive training is designed specifically for domestic violence victim advocates who want to better understand the role of the Guardian ad Litem (GAL). Participants will learn when and how a GAL is appointed, requirements to become a GAL in family law cases, and responsibilities of a GAL. We will discuss factors in child custody and placement determinations, strategies and practical considerations for GALs when domestic abuse is present, and more, including group work on case scenarios.
Registration opens in October!
