The Center also offers presentations to city and county law enforcement about the Center and the services available for children and caregivers. |
| Our Mission | | " To provide a safe, secure, and home-like environment to assist families who have been affected by abuse, neglect, divorce, and/or separation to rebuild family relationships through supervised visitation and neutral exchange services. " |
| History | | The Fayette County Visitation Center opened its doors on June 20, 2002. The project had been in development for two years. The current director, Joy Stanforth, has been with the Visitation Center since its inception. In 2005 the Visitation Center received 50,000 from the Osteopathic Heritage Foundation to increase the amount of services and hours the Center could operate. As the Visitation Center grows and thrives, children are now able to meet with their family in a neutral, homelike environment. |
