Safe Exchange

During separation or divorce, the process of transferring children between parents can be stressful or emotionally charged. Monitored exchanges allow for a safe and easy visitation transfer, while minimizing and controlling contact between spouses.

Strategies for Change provides a safe, non-confrontational environment to avert parent conflict during child visitation transfers. Monitored and pre-arranged times are scheduled to allow one parent to drop off, and one parent to pick up at staggered times. Strategies for Change staff supervises and records all exchanges, and is present to guarantee the childs comfort during each exchange.

Registration and program orientation is required for all adult participants. For those involved in the Courts, documents might be required prior to orientation. Participants are encouraged to consult with a Strategies for Change receptionist or Program Manager prior to orientation so that they may provide the necessary documents at orientation.

Orientation is $20 per adult participant and $15 per Safe Exchange. Safe Exchange service fees are paid in cash or money order and in advance of each monitored exchange.
