Together
Time Family Visitation Program A helping
hand for families in transition
Together Time is a family visitation program
at the Women & Family Life Center that helps families
during the difficult times of separation, divorce, and
family estrangement.
During this time of transition, parents and relatives
may be separated from their children and loved ones and
need access to a safe, friendly, monitored environment.
Together Time offers supervised visitation for families
in transition in the comfortable atmosphere of the Women
& Family Life Center.
Visitation Information
During supervised visitations, a monitor is present with
the non-custodial parent/relative and children at all
times. The monitor helps to ensure a safe environment
for visitations and provides documentation for all sessions.
Families using the Together Time service participate in
an intake interview and optional child orientation. This
is a time to assess family needs, set goals for visitations,
and discuss Together Time's structure.
Service
Fees
Please contact the Women & Family Life Center for information
regarding Together Time fees. All payment is due in advance
of services.
Common Questions
How can a family access Together
Time services?
Most often the court has to order such services; however,
a family that needs these services and can agree to both
participate may also be eligible.
Is
this short term or long term?
The answer is both, depending on the need.
What
if I know a Together Time staff person?
Every attempt will be made to make your situation neutral
and unbiased. We have a network of other visitation services
