dc.description.notesIn 1995-96, the Federal Government allocated resources for the development and piloting of ten children's contact services, sponsored by community based organisations, to provide changeover and supervised contact for children and their parents. This evaluation and research project was commissioned to increase understanding of the impact that contact services have on children, and the effectiveness, efficiency and appropriateness of the services. A comprehensive methodology was developed. It included a detailed literature search, visits to each contact service, workshops with co-ordinators from the contact services, focus groups and interviews with key stakeholders at State and local levels, and parent and child impact research. This latter study provided observations of a sample of 49 children (aged 9 months to 13 years) and their parents over time in the contact service. The resulting data, both quantitative and observational, provide a powerful and moving picture of children’s experiences in using contact services at various points in the visiting process, exploring a range of outcomes across different circumstances. The study in particular explores the complexity of tensions experienced by the visiting child.en
