The purpose of our Safe Exchange and Supervised Visitation Program is to provide a child-friendly environment to help reduce the stress of custodial exchanges or supervised visitation. House of Hope provides a neutral location and trained staff to coordinate arrival and departure times, monitor the exchange or visitation for safety, and much more.  Our visitation area is set up in a comfortable environment with a variety of toys and games that allow for positive parent/child interaction.  The ultimate goal of the supervised visitation program is to empower parents to work through their issues so they are able to safely interact with their child(ren). Our first priority is always the safety of the children.
