The Legal Aid Society’s Pro Bono Program is soliciting volunteer attorneys to represent children as attorney ad litem in dependency and family court. There are overwhelming numbers of children involved in dependency cases and in family matters who need a voice. As attorney ad litem you can be a voice for that child. A training has been scheduled for August 27, 2010 from noon to 4:00 p.m. (lunch is provided) at the Palm Beach County Bar Association offices. This training will orient the volunteer attorneys to the basics of representing children in dependency and family cases. The training and CLE is provided free of charge if the attendee agrees to accept at least one juvenile case from Legal Aid during the upcoming year. For more information about this volunteer opportunity, please contact Kimberly Rommel-Enright at 561-822-9769 or kenright@legalaidpbc.org.
