Family Visitation & Exchange Service
Visits and exchanges of children may become difficult in the event of parental separation or divorce. Parents may prefer, or the Court may order, that a neutral third party oversees such visits. Family Visitation & Exchange Services helps to create a less stressful visitation experience for both children and parents.
We understand families’ unique situations, and are able to provide them with a safe, neutral, child-focused setting where visits and exchanges take place under the supervision of trained staff.
Professionals working with Family Visitation & Exchange Services are there to monitor and observe any incidents that may arise during a visit or exchange. We will intervene when comments are made that contravene our program guidelines, and we can provide observation notes of how things went while service was provided.
If you are in the middle of a separation or divorce, and could use some help with visits or exchanges, please don’t hesitate to contact us at (613) 735-1093 or (613) 735-5866. Please ask to speak to our Supervised Access Program.
