What are the objectives of supervised access?
To provide a safe, neutral and child-focused setting for visits between a child and non-custodial parent or other family members.
When is supervised visitation ordered?
Supervised visitation is ordered when parents are in high conflict or high-risk situations. The noncustodial parent has access to the child only when supervised by another adult. Supervised visitation is used to protect children from potentially dangerous situations while allowing parental access and providing support for the parent child relationship.
We have mediators on staff to assist in the negotiation and plan for your supervised visit, and they can also help with editing or creating your parenting plan.
Location:
We provide sessions in safe, neutral locations within our community, your home, or any other agreed-upon location between the parents or drop off site (park, restaurant, etc.). Our Supervised Access Workers are experienced and meet all criteria.
Fees:
$50.00 /hr and an additional fee of $50.00 per report (if required). If the Supervised Access Worker is required to come to your home mileage fees will apply.
