Volunteers Needed: March Short-Term Guardianship Clinic in the Village of Glenview

NSLAC is looking for volunteer attorney for our upcoming short-term guardianship clinic in the Village of Glenview. Short-term guardianships are a means for parents to ensure the care of their minor children without going to court.  They can be useful if a parent is concerned with deportation, traveling out of town, having a medical procedure, or simply unavailable for a specified duration of time.   While any parent will benefit from a short-term guardianship plan, they are especially crucial given potential changes in US immigration laws.  Volunteer attorneys can expect to meet with clients and complete statutory short-term guardianship forms that best reflect the clients’ wishes for the care of their children.  No experience is necessary, but all volunteers must complete a short-term guardianship training session for 1.0 hour of CLE credit here:  https://youtu.be/Grl6V8GnLCo [youtu.be]
