Abstract: Congress acknowledged the need for available and appropriate supervised visitation and exchange services for child(ren) and adult victims of domestic violence and established the Safe Havens: Supervised Visitation and Safe Exchange Grant Program6 (Supervised Visitation Program) as part of the Violence Against Women Act of 2000. This federal grant program is designed to increase PO 00000 Frm 00066 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 supervised visitation and exchange services for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, dating violence, and child abuse. The Supervised Visitation Program seeks to shift the focus of supervised visitation and exchange in domestic violence cases in an important way: where the traditional purpose of supervised visitation was to keep the children safe while allowing continued access by the parents, Supervised Visitation Program grantees, funded by the United States Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), must consider as their highest priority the safety of both children and adult victims. In 2007, OVW announced Guiding Principles of the Safe Havens: Supervised Visitation and Safe Exchange Grant Program (Guiding Principles) designed to guide the development and administration of Supervised Visitation Program centers with an eye toward addressing the needs of child(ren) and adult victims of domestic violence in visitation and exchange settings. The Guiding Principles look beyond the visitation setting to address how communities funded under the Supervised Visitation Program should address domestic violence in the larger community. In addition, the Guiding Principles provide guidance for communities developing or enhancing supervised visitation and exchange services for families experiencing domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault, dating violence, or stalking; serve as a reference for drafting policies and protocols for these services; and assist collaborations with shaping, informing, and reviewing local supervised visitation and exchange services to address domestic violence. In the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013, Congress authorized the Justice for Families (JFF) Program which supports activities to improve the capacity of communities and courts to respond to families impacted by domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, and in some cases child sexual abuse with court based and court-related programs, supervised visitation and safe exchange by and between parents, training and technical assistance for people who work with families in the court system, civil legal services, and the provision of resources in juvenile court matters. The JFF Program includes purpose areas previously authorized under the Supervised Visitation Program. OVW has decided to update to reimagine the Guiding Principles to reflect improved best practices for families experiencing domestic violence, language access and E:\FR\FM\10OCN1.SGM 10OCN1
