**Summary Narrative: Proposed Use of FFY 2000 Funds**

During the fourth year of the \"Family Visitation Project,\" which will
be funded through the Federal Access and Visitation Grant program,
services will continue to focus on the supervised visitation and/or the
exchange of minor children with their non-custodial parents. Funds will
be used to continue these services on Oahu and the island of Hawaii,
through the Family Courts in the first and Third Circuits. In addition
to the continuation of existing activities, Hawaii\'s project will
examine and determine the need for other services requested or appearing
to be needed by parents and their children. These services will include,
but not be limited to, the need for mediation services, counseling, and
specific educational areas.
