(as described on the website above)
WCAA is a non-profit, charitable organization whose mission is to facilitate contact between children and their family members in a safe, neutral and child-focused environment.
They offer supervised visits and supervised exchanges (also referred to as "transfers") for families who have experienced some level of conflict in their relationships.
They act as an independent body whose primary goal is to ensure the safety and wellbeing of children by providing a secure and comfortable environment in which visitation and exchanges can occur. They do not make assessments or judgments with respect to whether a parent should or should not be supervised.
To ensure their independence, they do not become involved in negotiating access conditions between parties, provide counseling, act as messengers or mediate disputes. They instead refer the parties to their respective lawyers to address any access concerns.
