True! That happened to us in the beginning. We were supposed to setup a visit but nobody could coordinate it and the SW required it to be "supervised" and nobody was able to supervise it. That's when we called the CASA worker and she offered to drive with us to see Alexis and take her to the park (which was 1 hr drive away too)...if she hadn't done that for us I'm sure we couldn't have seen her. DCF required all supervised visits until their decision for placement with us which didn't happen for months later.
