Central Visitation Program
Central Visitation Program provides a safe, supervised and comfortable setting for court ordered visits between children and parents of low-income families involved in high conflict divorce, custody and/or restrainng order proceedings.
We are a 503(c) non profit program which charges $10.00 for an hour parenting time. Families must meet an income eligiblity guideline, have a court order for supervised parenting time, set-up and complete the intake process, and agree to allow the children to have parenting time without having to worry about court issues or the problems between their parents.
In 2007 - 2008 Central Visitation Program was rewarded a grant from the Colorado Promoting Responsible Fatherhood Community Access Grant to provide coached parenting time. If a parent chooses to use this program it is voluntary and involves class work along with the parenting time

Why CVP does this service?
Central Visitation Program is interested in serving the best interest of the child. Research shows that regardless of parental problems and shortcomings, children need the opportunity to foster a proper attachment to their parents. Children who have healthy attachments to both parents have better self-esteem and are better equipped to function well and become productive citizens. CVP gives the children a fun, safe and comfortable place to see a parent that may have made poor choices in the past.
Besides the benefits to children, CVP helps the community by eliminating the potential for violence that might occur in homes and neighborhoods if a neutral setting for visits were not available. There are wonderful visitation programs in the Metro Denver area that deal with families from all soco-economic backgrounds. In addition to the children and parents, the community also benefits because parents who are given the opportunity to have contact with their children are much more likely to pay their child support obligations.
