Hall Co. Probate Court launching support program to benefit wards of the state

GAINESVILLE - Hall County Probate Court is preparing to launch a Court Visitor's Program to support individuals who wards of the state and have limited or no family and friend support in their lives. <br /> <br /> As a part of the program, volunteers will go out once each month to visit an incapacitated adult ward at the facility where the person lives. Volunteers will also attend a monthly meeting at the courthouse to report experiences, needs, etc. to the Probate Court and to the representative of the state department that oversees these adult wards. <br /> <br /> There is no need for specialized skills, just the ability to offer companionship and a bit of social interaction to the individuals. Would-be volunteers should call the Hall County Probate Court at 770-531-6921.<br />
