Guardianship monitoring volunteers are appointed and trained help ensure that guardians of incapacitated elderly residents and young adults comply with the statutory and court-ordered requirements of their positions.
Courthouse visitors’ assistance volunteers greet and direct litigants, attorneys, and visitors to their destinations. They also answer questions and provide assistance in person or by phone.
