• A Self-Reflection Journal for Supervised Visitation Staff
  Inspire Action for Social Change is excited to offer this new tool designed to support, engage and re-energize programs working with families in a visitation setting. Providing supervised visitation work can be inspiring, hopeful, fun, overwhelming, hard, and stressful all at once. This tool is designed as a way to help center staff navigate the complexities of the supervised visitation world.
• Family Violence and Domestic Relations Program, National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges
  The Family Violence and Domestic Relations Program (FVDR) of the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges is funded by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office on Violence Against Women to support supervised visitation program communities in their efforts to increase their ability to assist families experiencing domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault, stalking, and dating violence. The FVDR provides communities with training on court-related, collaborative practice issues; tailored consultation on collaborating with the courts; and access to information on best practices for court and community collaboration.

  Futures Without Violence (Futures) operates, among other programs, the Children and Families Program that focuses on improving community and system responses to children and their families experiencing domestic violence or child maltreatment. Futures works with domestic violence programs, batterer intervention programs, family and juvenile courts, responsible fatherhood groups, child welfare agencies, supervised visitation centers, and community organizers to influence and form effective collaborations and build partnerships to promote safe and healthy families.
