Supervised Access Visitation

Our Family Time Program provides an opportunity for supervised access visitation between children and non-custodial family members.  Safe and healthy interaction with family members is important for children’s development. At the discretion of the visit supervisor a visit maybe ended before the scheduled time.  If there is any suspicion of
  • drug, alcohol use
  • Behavior that may be considered by that supervisor to be harmful to that child.
  • A parent trying to get the child alone or leave with the child
Afterward, there will be a conversation around safety for the next visitation.  If unsafe behavior persists all future visits may be terminated. All initial supervised access visits will be in a community setting.   The supervisor will be participating in whichever activity you choose for the children.  They are with you the entire visit sitting at the same table, swimming, climbing at an indoor park, etc.   When visits move to the family home staff will go upstairs when you do with the children, etc.  They are always supervising the children to ensure safety.  

Supervised Access Visitation costs are due prior to each visit.

The visiting adult will pay for the supervisor’s admission into any activity.

Based on observations and conversations with the team subsequent visits may move to the family home.

As we set our schedules around set visits any visits canceled within 24 hours of the time will be billed for the entire time of scheduled visit.

If the visit has to be ended early for any of the above-mentioned reasons, the custodial parent must be available by phone during visitation time to come and pick up their child

Contact notes will be collected during the visitation and shared with both parents following the visit.

The Supervised access visitation cost of each visit is $70.00/hr and payment is made prior to each visit by email transfer to [email protected]  or can be made by credit card by phone (780-312-1364).   No cash is to be exchanged during visit times.
