Heartfelt Donation Made to Nassau Supervised Visitation
|
A former
Nassau Supervised Visitation
(NSV) parent recently dropped off a donation of new stuffed animals for the children of the program, which provides supervised visits between non-custodial parents and their children in a safe, child-friendly facility. Because the donor had experienced first-hand the emotional end of visits for parents and children, they hoped these stuffed animals would provide comfort to the children visiting in the future. We know our kids will love them! Interested in donating new toys or games to NSV?
