In a Safe Exchange and Supervised Visitation program, the district court may employ or contract with a person (1) with whom a child may be left by one parent for a short period while waiting to be picked up by the other parent; or (2) to supervise visits among one or both parents and the child.”
The AOC must receive proposals no later than Thursday May 11, 2023 at 4:00 p.m. MDT. . To receive the RFP packet, contact JoAnna Jimenez at aocjmj@nmcourts.gov or check AOC’s website, https://www.nmcourts.gov/court-administration/request-for-proposals/, as RFP packets will not be faxed.
