Supervised Visitation and Exchange Services
in San Benito County

San Benito County, known for its agricultural heritage, historic charm, and tight-knit communities, is home to families navigating a range of custody and visitation challenges. From the growing city of Hollister to the historic mission town of San Juan Bautista and the rural areas of Tres Pinos, Aromas, and beyond, families across the county often need support in maintaining safe and consistent parent-child contact. Whether due to court orders, voluntary agreements, or recommendations from legal professionals, supervised visitation services play a crucial role in supporting families during periods of change. At Bridging Families, we proudly provide professional, court-compliant supervised visitation and monitored exchange services to the residents of San Benito County.

We understand that each family’s situation is unique—some may be navigating custody disputes, rebuilding trust, or ensuring safety due to past concerns such as domestic violence, substance use, or high-conflict separations. Our role is to act as a neutral third party to facilitate and monitor visits, allowing children to build or maintain a healthy bond with a non-custodial parent in a safe, structured, and emotionally supportive environment. Our providers are trained to remain impartial while ensuring that every interaction aligns with court guidelines and prioritizes the child’s best interest.

All Bridging Families monitors meet the professional standards outlined in California Family Code §3200.5 and Judicial Council Standard 5.20. This includes a minimum of 24 hours of training in critical topics such as child development, safety procedures, cultural sensitivity, trauma awareness, and conflict de-escalation. In addition, all visitation providers are TrustLine-registered and Live Scan fingerprinted, ensuring thorough background checks and legal compliance. These standards ensure that families working with Bridging Families receive not only safe supervision but also compassionate, qualified support.

We offer flexible visitation formats throughout San Benito County, including off-site supervised visitation in public, child-friendly locations such as parks, libraries, and community centers. We also provide monitored custody exchanges in neutral locations that reduce tension and promote consistency for the child. For families who are separated by distance or other limitations, we can also facilitate virtual supervised visitation using secure platforms like Zoom, in accordance with court expectations.

Each visit is professionally documented, and reports can be made available to legal counsel, mediators, or the court if required. Our team collaborates with attorneys, family court staff, mediators, and other child welfare professionals to ensure that our services align with custody orders and support long-term family stability.
