Start Your Parenting Time
Our seven county coalition of providers offer a range of Court-ordered options providing safe access for all.
Court-ordered supervised parenting time
Court-ordered supervised parenting time describes parent/child contact overseen by a third party. Professional supervision is impartial. That means documentation is unbiased, objective, and respectful. Some of these services may be conducted virtually via Zoom.
One-on-one supervision
One-on-one supervision is parent/child contact supervised by at least one professional focused exclusively on that interaction.
Group supervision
Group supervision involves parent/child contact in which more than one family is supervised by one or more supervisors, sometimes referred to as “multiple-family” supervision.
Supportive supervision
Supportive one-on-one supervision entails active involvement in promoting behavior change in the parent/child relationship, sometimes called “directed,” “educational,” or “facilitated supervision.”
Therapeutic supervision
Therapeutic supervision is joint parent/child therapy conducted by a licensed mental health professional also trained in providing supervision of parenting time.
Intermittent supervision
Intermittent supervision is parent/child contact in which the parent and child are supervised for part of the time and purposely left unattended by the supervisor for certain periods.
Off-site supervision
Off-site supervision refers to contact that occurs away from a facility—usually in the home or community.
Monitored exchange
Monitored exchange, “supervised transfer,” or “safe exchange” is supervision of the transfer of a child at the start of the parent/child contact and back to the custodial parent at the end of the contact. The remainder of the parenting time is unsupervised.
Parenting education
Adjunct parenting education provides tools and strategies to improve parenting skills and help parents understand their children's individual needs and development, as well as their own roles and responsibilities.
