District 6 NC Guardian ad Litem Program

We hope that everyone has a fun and safe Independence Day while celebrating our country's 248th Birthday!!

GAL Volunteers are definitely heroes..............

Great story that warmed our hearts and we hope will warm yours:

Last week was spirit week for this little girl whose mother serves as a Guardian ad Litem volunteer with Guardian ad Litem Program - Harnett, Johnston, & Lee Counties. One of the days was Hero Day, where children were instructed to dress up like their Hero. The little girl asked if she could dress up like her mother and wear her mother’s GAL badge because she was a hero for being a GAL.

🎖Thanks for being a Hero in our program and at home mom!

Happy Veterans Day to all U.S. veterans and to the many CASA/GAL volunteers and staff who have served our country in the armed forces. Your sacrifice and dedication are appreciated. 🇺🇸

Children exposed to domestic violence may experience long-lasting trauma, which can impact brain development and mental health. A stable relationship with a supportive adult like a CASA/GAL volunteer can help children do well, even when they have faced significant hardships.
