What is supervised visitation?

Supervised visitation refers to court-ordered visits between a non-custodial parent and their child that take place in the presence of a neutral third-party observer. This arrangement is often used when there are concerns about the child's safety or the parent's behavior. The supervisor's job is to ensure that visits are safe and appropriate, and to document interactions if necessary. Supervised visitation helps maintain a parent-child relationship while prioritizing the child's well-being.
