Supervised Child Visitation in Oklahoma 

KANIA LAW OFFICE is a Tulsa, Oklahoma Family Law Firm

Many circumstances in domestic cases such as divorce, paternity, or guardianship actions can lead to a situation where a court orders that one party's visitation with his or her minor children be supervised by a professional third party.  

Oklahoma statute, under the Oklahoma Child Supervised Visitation Program (Okla. Stat. tit. 43, § 110.1a (2004), provides that the  associate district judge of each county may create a supervised visitation team to (a) identify entities which will provide a place for visitations to occur, (b) identify individuals willing to serve as third-party visitation supervisors, and (c) establish training requirements for volunteers. among other tasks.  Unfortunately it seems that the majority of counties in Oklahoma have failed to establish such teams.  Therefore, the Kania Law Office provides this page to help those trying to exercise their supervised visitation rights.

Licenses and Accreditation for Oklahoma Visitation Supervisors:

There is no official licensing or accreditation authority for supervised visitation in Oklahoma.  Each district court has the opportunity to facilitate a process by which visitation supervisors can be approved; however, few, if any, district courts have done this.  There is a national non-profit organization, known as the Supervised Visitation Network, that has created standards for supervised visitation, to which many providers listed below subscribe.
