The Department is seeking proposals from qualified community-based providers to provide Supervised Visitation services. Supervision of family visits consists of skilled observation and assessment of parent-child(ren)s interaction and in modeling/teaching parenting skills by a trained Visitation Support Worker during scheduled visit time(s); for the purpose of providing a safe environment in which children in the care or custody can visit with their parents and other important people in their lives, and the parent/child interaction can be strengthened through facilitating appropriate interactions and parenting techniques. Supervised visitation occurs on a continuum, from fully supervised visits to less restrictive methods of supporting visits.
