Supervised Access Visits: What Parents Need To Know

When Children's Aid Society (CAS) becomes involved in your family, one of the most critical and emotionally charged parts of the process is supervised access. These are visits where you spend time with your child under supervision—either by CAS or by an independent third party.

What many parents don’t realize is that supervised access can either support your reunification or delay it indefinitely, depending on how it’s handled.

If you’re unprepared or unsupported during these visits, the supervisor’s report may not reflect your strengths as a parent.

That’s why it’s critical to have proper guidance from professionals who understand what CAS is looking for—and how to demonstrate stability, safety, and connection. At SafeHarbor, our experienced advocates (former Children’s Aid investigations staff) can prepare you before each visit, and provide trusted, independent supervision services.
