Supervised
Visitation Monitor – SAFE Volunteers supervise visits for families who have been affected by domestic
violence, child abuse, stalking, or sexual assault.
They also assist with the exchange of children between parents when a
neutral setting is needed to protect victims and children. Please click here for information

The Family
Visitation Center believes that student volunteers or interns can
benefit from a learning experience at the Center while providing
valuable assistance to the visitation program. The Center recruits
from area universities to find students majoring in Psychology,
Social Work or Sociology. Students may be able to receive credit
from their university for learning experiences at the Visitation
Center. Students must be able to attend scheduled trainings.
