Virtual Contact

Virtual Contact Services

Our Virtual Contact Service involves the use of video chat apps like Microsoft Teams, Facetime and/or WhatsApp.

Distance doesn’t have to stop children and parents from having safe contact with their non resident parent. Our Supervised Virtual Contact is used in high-risk situations where a risk to the child has been identified. Whereas our Supported Virtual Contact service can be used when there has been no significant risk identified to the child. Depending on any risk identified, our Virtual Contact sessions can be supervised or supported.

During Supervised Virtual Contact sessions, our professional and experienced Contact Supervisors are on the call and can manage the call as the administrator to ensure that we are safeguarding the child at all times.

Along with being a trusted way to help keep parents and children in contact who are unable to meet in person, Virtual Contact can be a good option for those not ready to meet face-to-face.
