We are an international membership organization headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida serving professionals who provide supervised visitation and access services to families. The Supervised Visitation Network was originally founded in 1991 to provide opportunities for networking, sharing of information, and training by and for individuals engaged in this relatively new but rapidly emerging field of service.
In addition to serving as a resource for our members, the Network provides a service to families by linking them to direct service providers and providing resources for parents and children. Some of our goals as an organization include:
To provide professional forums for networking and sharing of information about supervised child access services
To develop and disseminate standards for practice of supervised visitation and exchange services
To maintain a directory of supervised visitation and exchange providers
To collect and make available research relevant to safe child access services
To gather and disseminate training and program materials for child access providers
To provide public education regarding the role and importance of supervised child access programs in the continuum of services for families
To assist parents in locating and utilizing appropriate services
The SVN Forum is a great place to get and give answers.
