The Executive Director of Florida’s Guardian ad Litem programs defended his agency today before a Senate panel. A recent state audit of the program found it was able to hire more staff with increased state funding but wasn’t serving more kids. Guardian ad Litem Executive Director Alan Abromowitz says in five years, the program saw a one-time increase of $10 million, money he says the legislature earmarked for more staff but not to expand youth representation. "It was for quality, for improvements, volunteer travel and trainers. But it was not for expanded representation, we’ve always met our obligation to the legislature on those issues," he said Tuesday before the Senate's Children and Families Committee.
