- Description:
-
Both custodial and visiting parents have a duty to expend all reasonable efforts to provide the support systems needed for their children to mature to self-sufficiency. The New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance (OTDA) is committed to facilitating services that strengthen the parenting foundation of families to improve lifetime opportunities for all children.
OTDA supports the Access and Visitation Program, through approved services delivered in safe settings, to help separated and divorced families of all income levels achieve improved parenting opportunities and develop abilities that enable both custodial and visiting parents to fulfill their responsibility to raise their children.
Toward that end, the OTDA administers an Access and Visitation Program that is funded by the federal grant known as the “Grants to States for Access and Visitation Program,” (Access and Visitation Program) as set forth in the federal Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 at section 391 (codified at 42 U.S.C. §669b). The availability of Access and Visitation Program funding (AV funding) is subject to receipt of notification of a successful federal grant application by New York State. Federal legislation provides that such programs shall “support and facilitate visiting parents’ access to and visitation of their children.”
