We have one visitation room in Franklin County- this room is used roughly 70 hours each month for parent, sibling, and family visits. Inside the room we have toys for all ages, a couch, a TV, a table and chairs, and even a fridge and microwave! This allows parents, or grandparents, to do normal daily activities with their children such as: watch a movie, play a game, do schoolwork with the child, or even eat a meal together.
We are also able to host court supervised custody visits for a fee of $30/hr. We take great pride in our visitation room. We are one of the few CASA organizations in the State of Illinois, and the only in southern Illinois, that is fortunate enough to offer a space for families to meet. As an organization we are always brainstorming and looking for ways to improve this room and make it as family friendly as possible.
