DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Lansing, Michigan is seeking a vendor to provide Parenting Time Visitation Support Services (PTVSS) for families requiring supervised visits. These services are designed to ensure children can interact safely with their parents, fostering healthy relationships and maintaining the parental bond within a structured environment.
The program involves facilitating supervised parenting time, focusing on allowing parents to practice parenting skills and strengthening family relationships. Vendors are expected to promote routine activities that may transition into home life, offer guidance and suggestions regarding parenting techniques and limit-setting based on each family's needs, and support parents in identifying and accessing relevant community resources.
Additionally, providers may be required to transport children or parents to and from scheduled parenting times as requested by the agency. Services must be tailored to court or agency-determined requirements, with the overarching objective of supporting family development and reunification.
