CHILD CUSTODY FAQ #3

3. What are the types of visitation orders?

Visitation: When the parent who does not have the children more than half of the time has
visitation with the children. Generally, it helps the parents and children to have detailed
visitation plans to prevent conflicts and confusion.
Supervised Visitation: When the children's safety and well-being require that visits with the
other parent be supervised by you, another adult, or a professional agency. Click here for more
information on supervised visitation. Supervised visitation is sometimes also used in cases
where a child and a parent need time to become more familiar with each other, like if a parent
hasn’t seen the child in a long time and they need to slowly get to know each other again.
No Visitation: This option is used in situations when visiting with the parent, even with
supervision, would be physically or emotionally harmful to the children. In these cases, it is not
in the best interest of the child for the parent to have contact with the child.
