THE IN-CROWD LAW ENFORCEMENT / COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIP PROJECT

The mission of this project is to facilitate cooperative dialog between Palm Beach County law enforcement and the troubled neighborhoods in which they serve.
By facilitating conversations the participants recognize that they have common problems with common solutions. Having dialog with open minds and hearts to address these problems together will help the parties understand the truth: that they want the same outcome.
To support these conversations with relationship enhancing In-Crowd Building Bridges volunteer projects will show that there is genuine caring and mutual need on both sides.

GUARDIAN AD LITEM PROGRAM

Abused, abandoned and neglected children in Palm Beach County become the subject of court proceedings. Sometimes their voices go unheard and their best interests are lost in the shuffle. Guardian Ad Litem volunteers (GAL’s) work with a multi-disciplinary team that includes a lawyer to advocate for the services and support each child needs.
The volunteer’s role is to get to know the child, visit and support them throughout the case, and provide information and recommendations to judges. Studies show that children with a Guardian ad Litem are more likely to be adopted, half as likely to re-enter foster care, have a plan for permanency, and to perform well in school.
The Guardian ad Litem Program needs community minded people like you.

Current Volunteer Needs: Guardian ad Litem (GAL’s) that are Child Advocates and Pro Bono Attorneys.
