Visitation

Sign up
Once you have a court order or mediated agreement that requires supervised visitation, contact us by phone, email or contact form on the Home page to start the process. BOTH PARENTS MUST CONTACT US TO BEGIN.
2
Intake
Once both parents have made the initial contact, our staff will schedule separate intake interviews with the parents. Custodial parents are encouraged to bring the child/ren to their intake interview. Each parent is required to complete case information forms. Each parent must have a valid picture id to enroll. The fee for each intake interview is $35.00 which must be paid in advance by each parent.

Schedule Your Visits
When both intake interviews are complete, visitations may begin. Family Transitions offers a variety of days, times and locations for supervised visits. Custodial parents must agree to the location. Each parent will be given a specific meeting point and time. Failure to follow the pre-set arrangements will lead to the cancellation of the visit and may cause services to be terminated. Visits are typically in 1- or 2-hour blocks. Supervised visitation fees are generally $40 per hour but may vary depending on number of children and location of visits. All fees must be paid in advance.
