Together we are powerful! v O L U N t E E R g U a R d i a N S h i p O N E O N O N E Volunteer Guardianship One on One (VGOO) is a non-profit organization founded in 1996 with a mission to provide compassionate one on one guardianship services to legally incapacitated adults through the education, oversight and support of dedicated volunteers. VGOO is the only nonprofit organization in New Jersey, and one of only a few in the country, that utilize volunteers to serve as guardians for incapacitated adults with no one else to serve in this role. Because of our volunteers, older people with dementia and other adults with mental illness and developmental disabilities have someone that is committed to just one person and making sure that they are living their lives in a manner that reflects their wishes and values and ensures they are safe, their assets are protected, and they are not forgotten.
