Both CANAL and VGA must be approved by a court before they can serve as a Guardian ad Item. The Order Appointing Guardian ad Item outlines the duties of the Guardian ad Item and the court’s expectations of their performance. It also outlines the rights of the minor or incapacitated person, and the guardian’s responsibility to protect and advocate for those rights.
