Safe Havens Supervised Visits And Monitored Exchange Program

The Safe Havens Supervised Visitation and Exchange Grant Program helps create safe places for visitation with and exchange of children, by and between parents, in situations involving domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault, or stalking. Eligible applicants are States, units of local government, and Indian tribal governments that propose to enter into contracts with public and private nonprofit entities to provide supervised visitation and safe visitation exchange of children in such cases. At least five percent of the funding for this program must be available for grants to Indian tribal governments.

Reporting Requirements

As a result of VAWA 2000, all grant recipients are now statutorily required to report on the effectiveness of their projects, and the Attorney General must now report to Congress on the effectiveness of each grant program. Therefore, grantees funded under this program must collect and maintain data that measures their effectiveness. Grantees are required to submit Semi-Annual Progress Report.
