Testimonial-
“The level of attention I received while taking this course was exceptional. Coming from a family of social workers, law enforcement and so on, being a productive member of society means a lot to me. Darlene and her courses helped me accomplish a goal in little to no time and hit the ground running.
The small fee for the class in comparison to the money you make, the outcomes you can change and feeling you provide these families. During a rough time is a no brainer to invest in.” JM

What are Supervised Visitations?
Supervised Visitation allows parents in high conflict or high-risk situations access to their child(ren) in a monitored and safe environment. The visiting parent has access to the child only when supervised by a neutral third person. Supervised Visitation is also used to protect children from potentially dangerous situations while allowing parental access and providing support for the parent/child relationship.

What is the Intake process?
The intake process must be completed by both parents before a visitation can be scheduled. An Intake interview is scheduled where each parent and monitor will meet and discuss the case in detail, go over all completed paperwork, fees, guidelines, and schedule an upcoming visitation schedule for the parents, following the court order. Intake interviews are conducted with BOTH parents separately and should take on average 35 minutes to complete.

How & when should monitors be paid for visitation?
A cash payment is paid to the monitor at the beginning of each visit. The monitor will supply a receipt for all services provided.

What is observed and documented during visitation?
A written record of each contact and visit including the time, date, location, all parent-child contact, mood of the parent/child(ren), and each activity performed. Observations of child and visiting parent’s physical and mental state. Any reminders of the guidelines from the monitor to the non-custodial parent (redirects), whether or not the visit was terminated and details of the termination. How the visitation ends and drop-off/pickup details by both parents must also be documented.

How are Dropoff/Pickups done?
*The custodial parent and non-custodial parent are met separately in different locations. Under NO circumstances is the visiting parent allowed to follow the monitor to drop-off the child(ren) back to the custodial parent. Typically, the monitor will meet the custodial parent and child(ren) at a designated location 10 minutes before the visitation begins. The monitor will then meet the visiting parent at a different designated location. Ten minutes prior to the visitation ending, the monitor will let the visiting parent know it is time to start wrapping up the visit. Once the visit is completed, the monitor will drop-off the child(ren) to the custodial parent.

All Monitors is San Diego must take additional 5.20 Standards training with the Judicial Council.
