MISSION STATEMENT

Quality-Time Visitation Group, Inc. is a professional off-site and on-site child monitoring agency-charity that provides a safe environment for families who are in need of supervising. The Quality-Time Visitation Group, Inc. are aware that supervised visits are shown to be crucial to a child’s mental health and are helpful for children who are angry or mistrustful of a non custodial parent. Through the professional supervised services we assure the non custodial and custodial parent that a third party is present as an observer at all times for the safety of the child(ren). Quality-Time Visitation Group, Inc. is represented by Connie J. Thomas a Professional Court Monitor and a group of Professional Court Monitors.

Quality-Time does conduct a comprehensive Intake Interview prior to the first visit between both parents at separate appointment times. Quality-Time strictly adheres to the California Rules of Court section 5.20 of the Uniform Standards for practice for providers which states, “(d) [Safety and security procedures] All providers should make every reasonable effort to assure the safety and welfare of the child and adults during the visitation. (2) Conduct a comprehensive intake and screening to assess the nature and degree of risk for each case. The procedures for intake should include separate interviews with the parties before the first visit. During the interview, the provider should obtain identifying information and explain the reasons for temporary suspension or termination of a visit as specified in subdivision (m) of this section. If the child is of sufficient age and capacity, the provider should include him or her in part of the intake or orientation process. Any discussion should be presented to the child in a manner appropriate to the child's developmental stage; (3) Obtain during the intake process, (i) copies of any protective order, (ii) current court orders, (iii) any Judicial Council form relating to supervised visitation orders, (iv) a report of any written records of allegations of domestic violence or abuse, and (v) in the case of a child's chronic health condition, an account of his or her health needs; (4) Establish written procedures to follow in the event a child is abducted during supervised visitation; and (5) Suspend or terminate supervised visitation if the provider determines that the risk factors present are placing in jeopardy the safety and welfare of the child or provider as enumerated.
