NH Bill Aims to Improve Visitation Enforcement

Kathleen Parker wrote an excellent editorial about an effort underway in New Hampshire to put some teeth into child visitation orders. Rep. David Bickford is sponsoring the bill, HB 1585, whose idea was originally proposed by psychologist Dr. Stevan Gressitt of Maine. The bill would refer violators of child visitation orders to the state's Department of Health and Human Services to prompt an investigation for child abuse or neglect. New Hampshire's head of DHHS supports the legislation. This bill could help reduce the number of Parental Alienation Syndrome cases in the state, and is definitely a piece of legislation to keep an eye on.
