The Guardianship and Advocacy Commission has a myriad of volunteer opportunities available to people with all different types of experience levels.  It is our goal to enlist volunteer services to support persons with disabilities in our own communities. 

Many of our regional offices need office support.  That includes help answering telephones, filing, opening mail and with other administrative tasks.  Our offices are open Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5:00 pm. We have locations throughout the state.  Volunteers may donate as much time as they wish.  This is great way to gain work experience.

The Volunteer Visitor Program matches screened trained volunteers to our wards.  Visit and advocate for appropriate services for a person in your own community! Gain experience in the social service field!

Human Rights Authority service enlist pro-bono attorneys and paralegals to assist with the unique type of law that the IGAC practices.
