Supervised Exchange Supervised Visitation – SESV

 

New Mexico Judiciary’s Safe Exchange & Supervised Visitation (SESV) program, created in State Law and Supreme Court Rule, (Subsections H-I) provides children and their parents with a safe, nurturing environment for supervised visitation and exchange, allowing a child to continue his or her relationship with the noncustodial parent without being placed in the middle of parental conflicts.

Supervision acts initially as intervention, and ultimately as prevention with regard to disputes between parents and other members of the family and the children. The program also serves to diminish the child’s exposure to more harmful and potentially life-threatening situations. Emphasis is placed on the safety and well-being of the child.
