Supervised Parenting Time
The Supervised Parenting Time Program provides trained personnel to supervise contact between a child and his/her non-residential parent in a safe, neutral, and homelike environment.

After we receive applications from both parties, the non-residential parent will be scheduled for a face-to-face orientation. Once that has been completed, the residential parent is scheduled for his/her orientation. After BOTH orientations are completed and the $50 non-refundable fee per orientation is paid, you will be scheduled as promptly as possible for the first parenting time session or safe exchange with your child/children. This entire process can take 2-3 days or weeks, depending on how quickly the applications and orientations are completed.
