▪ Biological Parents Reunification –Supervised Visitation Program-Once it is decided it’s time for the Parents to be reunified with the Children, the biological parents/parent will be invited to move into the Home to live with their child under the supervision of the House Parents for a minimum of 6 Months. The House Parents will be their “Life Support” guiding the biological parents, supporting them and helping the biological parents and child(ren) to adjust and gain life long skills for a very successful Parent/Child relationship.
