Supplemental Policy Considerations for Remote Supervised Visitation

Responding to a Public Health Crisis

During the early months of the COVID-19 public health crisis, the OVW Justice for Families (JFF) supervised visitation community came together in an unprecedented way to navigate, connect with one another and serve families impacted by violence with brave hearts and open minds. Inspire Action, in partnership with the Office on Violence (OVW), convened a Remote Supervised Visitation (SV) Services Learning Community. The Learning Community was tasked with creating consideration and example policies for remote supervised visitation services to be used as a reference point and resource during these challenging times and future circumstances that would benefit from remote services.

Through partnership, care, and survivor-centered practice, Inspire helps communities create safe, healing-focused visitation and exchange services that interrupt post-separation abuse.
