Supervised Parenting Time (CASA)

The CASA Supervised Exchange & Parenting Time (SEPT) Program provides an environment where kids can develop and maintain relationships with non-custodial parents.By monitoring and documenting observations during court-ordered child-parent visits, SEPT volunteers support individual safety, accountability, and healthy relationships between children and parents who are involved in conflictive custody or domestic violence cases. The program offers two services which take place at either our downtown Colorado Springs location or our Teller County location. We are actively seaking bilingual volunteers to help with our Spanish speaking families.Supervised Parenting Time: This service provides visits for children and their non-custodial parent(s) in our Family Visitation Rooms (pictured here)What exactly do Supervised Exchange & Parenting Time Volunteers do?Once you decide to become a SEPT volunteer, you'll go through a screening process and initial training.
