Kansas Network of Visitation Providers is a not for profit organization
dedicated to providing a forum for communication among its members
concerning issues pertaining to: the delivery of the child
visitation/exchange services, provide educational and technical
assistance to its members, education to the public, and providing any
other services and information as may be appropriate.
Funding for Centers is
provided by federal, state, and local funds; private foundations; and
user fees. Centers follow guidelines set by the Office of the Governor
and the Attorney General of the State of Kansas. Each Center develops
its own method of service delivery within the guidelines. Each Center
is a member in good standing of the National Supervised Visitation
Network. Most Centers offer additional educational/support services and
referrals to community resources.

Safe Havens Grant Project
The Kansas Governor’s Office
received a discretionary federal grant, Safe Havens: Supervised
Visitation and Safe Exchange (Safe Havens) to support efforts to
develop and enhance services for supervised visitation and safe
exchange of children in situations involving domestic violence, dating
violence, child abuse, sexual assault and stalking. The Governor’s
office has partnered with the Kansas Attorney General’s Office, the
Kansas Network of Visitation Providers, the Kansas Coalition Against
Sexual and Domestic Violence, and the Kansas Office of Judicial
Administration and formed the Governor and Attorney General’s Committee
on Supervised Visitation and Safe Exchange Centers to work on this
grant project.
The grant project objectives
include conducting a needs assessment to determine gaps in service area
and expand or develop additional visitation programs, revise statewide
guidelines for visitation programs and develop a statewide training
curriculum.
