Visitation Center Aims To Ease Divorce Stress In Douglas County
The Farm Inc. will use a $30,000 grant, partly from the Kansas attorney general's office, to establish a supervised visitation center at 910 W 24th in Lawrence. An unarmed guard and a supervisor will oversee visits, with internships via KU School of Social Welfare. The center, a former apartment unit, will offer books and toys to provide a warm, safe space for children and parents during exchanges.
