Under Florida law, a guardian ad litem is a court-appointed representative, who is tasked with acting as the "next friend of the child." Today, I am joined by Dario, who is an active Guardian ad litem in the state of Florida. He gives us insight into why he joined this organization, and how his small investment, is yielding big results for the foster youth where he presides. To learn more about the GAL (Guardian Ad Litem) program head over to https://guardianadlitem.org and also Voices for Children at beavoice.org.

Dario would like to give a special shout to Melissa for connecting the dots and I’d be remised if I didn’t give a shoutout to my girlfriend Vicky for begging me to make this interview happen. Also large thank you to Old Navy for their back to school giveaway.
