What if there is a problem during supervised visitation?

The well-being of the child is a priority. Supervised visit monitors are trained to be prepared and intervene promptly. They will evaluate the situation and de-escalate any stressors as much as possible and take the appropriate measures to manage the situation. Complications during the visit may initiate a change in the existing visitation arrangement, spark additional safety measures, or finally terminate future visits completely.    The supervised visit professional will document the incident for future reference, share with both parental sides and the courts when applicable.

Any Questions

Supervised visits are designed to ensure that a child can have safe contact with a non-custodial parent without having to be put in the middle of the parent's conflicts or other family issues.
A custodial parent cannot deny visitation rights to the non-custodial parent without a court order or custody agreement.
The location of a supervised visit is determined on what is deemed most appropriate for the child’s safety and well-being by the courts or supervising agency. In some cases, parents maybe involved in this process. Visits may take place in a variety of settings, including the child’s home, the non-custodial parent’s residence, a local visitation center, or public spaces such as parks or restaurants.
If specified in a custody order, you have the right to know your child's location during visitation. However, without a custody order, the other parent isn't legally obligated to disclose the child's whereabouts during their visitation time.
When arranging supervised visits for your child, it is imperative to use someone who is impartial and properly trained, as the reports provided by the supervised visit professional are often used in court proceedings.
During supervised visits, parents must not use drugs or alcohol before or during the visit. They should not arrive under the influence. Additionally, both parents must avoid negative behavior, like gossiping or criticizing the other parent in front of the child, as this can harm the child and may violate a court order.
