Supported contact is appropriate for families where no significant risk to the child or those around the child has been identified. This is an unsupervised session, and does not include a report.
Children can attend to spend quality time with their non-resident parent and other family members in the safe environment of our family room. Our Staff are around if support or assistance is required and will facilitate handover of the children from resident parent to non-resident parent.
Staff and volunteers are available for assistance but there is no close observation or monitoring of individual contacts.
Attendance dates and times will be registered but no reports will be made unless risk of harm to the child, parent or Centre staff is witnessed.
A completed referral form and contact agreement form are required before contact can commence.
