This service is provided to ensure the safety of the child(ren), to stop any allegations against the party or to maintain the relationship until an evaluation can be completed and presented to the Court.

TASC provides a supervisor/therapist to oversee the entire visit between parent(s) and child(ren) in its Therapeutic Physical Supervision services.
