- To support the building of a mutually satisfying relationship
between the parent and child when it involves teaching skills
to parents
- The reasons supervision are necessary (i.e., sexual abuse,
domestic violence, mental illness) are of a nature that preclude
unsupervised visitation because of the emotional impact that
contact may trigger in the child
- The parent is unable or unwilling to abide by restrictions
on discussions of subjects identified as upsetting to the child
- The parent exhibits behaviors and/or has a diagnosed condition
that might place the child's safety in jeopardy
- There is insufficient information about the parent's ability
to assure the child's safety
- The parent continues to deny or fails to accept responsibility
for the actions which placed the child's safety in jeopardy or
caused serious physical or emotional harm
- Visits may be supervised for reasons of safety, and evaluation
of the parent-child relationship
- Case advisers can appraise a parent's motivation and willingness
to cooperate with the visiting plan. The case adviser will be
able to observe the parent’s interactions to evaluate how
the parent relates to the child, whether there is an improvement
in this area over time, whether the parent is able to plan appropriate
activities for the child and whether the parent is able to care
for and protect the child during visits.
