Safe Connections: The Vital Role of the Seibel Center

May is Supervised Visitation Awareness Month, and in this episode, we’re shining a light on a local resource that’s making a profound difference for families in crisis. The Michael H. Seibel Family Visitation and Exchange Center, housed within the Parenting Resource Center, provides a secure, neutral environment where children can safely maintain bonds with their parents in high-risk situations—including domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse.

We’ll explore the mission behind the center, the legacy of Judge Michael H. Seibel, and how supervised visitation plays a critical role in both family preservation and public safety. Join us as we hear stories of impact, break down myths, and highlight how our community is working to protect its most vulnerable members.
