Help families stay connected and ensure the well‑being and safety of children and youth.
Supervised Family Visitation Workers allow children and youth in foster care the opportunity to have visitation with their families in a safe environment.

If travel with the children is required for the visit, transportation will be arranged by taxi and covered by the program. Additionally, all Supervised Visitation Workers are compensated for their report writing time. Training is provided to prepare you for the role and there is on‑call support during all the visitation times.
