About Renew Supervision Services
Supervised or monitored visitation occurs when one parent loses custody or visitation rights to a child(ren). For that parent to see their child, the courts have mandated that a supervisor or monitoring person be present during all interaction with the child.
We are looking for caring professionals, who are part of a professional regulatory body or association (e.g., ECE, Social Work, CYW), to join our team of Supervised Access Workers (or Family Support Workers) who monitor custody visitations between parent and child(ren).
