Supervised Visitation

The DC Superior Court Supervised Visitation Center provides supervised visitation and exchange services primarily to court-referred domestic violence cases. The Center has four primary objectives:

1. to provide a neutral location for visits between children and non-custodial parents;
2. to serve as a site for exchanges of children;
3. to protect the safety of children and the custodial parents; and
4. to preserve the visitation rights of non-custodial parents.
