Guardians For New Futures
(GFNF) is dedicated to supporting the needs of the Guardian
ad Litem Program and the children they represent.
GFNF is a registered Florida 501(c)(3) non-profit organization
established in 1991 to secure additional financial support
to help fund programs and direct services for the Guardian
ad Litem(GAL) Program of the 19th Judicial District.
As a State funded program, the GAL Program is not permitted
to solicit alternative funding sources. As such, the
GAL Program depends upon financial support from GFNF
to fund programs and critical initiatives not funded
due to budget constraints or annual budget cut-backs.
All monies raised by GFNF are restricted for the GAL
Program. The GAL Program is a member of National CASA
(Court Appointed Special Advocates) and is one of the
20 GAL Programs within the State of Florida. Each GAL
Program has a dedicated non-profit organization established
to secure additional funding.
GFNF Mission Statement
Provide support and advocacy to ensure that:
- Every abused, neglected and abandoned child in the
19th Judicial Circuit is represented by a Guardian
ad Litem
- Financial assistance and other resources are available
to meet the needs of the children when not available
through other means.
