→Non-evaluative views of the child reports
These reports can be used when parents are trying to resolve parenting issues out of court and when they're dealing with those issues in court. Like parenting assessments and evaluative views of the child reports, these reports can provide the missing piece of the puzzle that helps parents finally reach an agreement or tip the balance for the judge or arbitrator who's being asked to decide which arrangements for parenting and contact are best for the children.
Non-evaluative views of the child reports are available privately, from psychologists, clinical counsellors, social workers and lawyers. These can be completed very quickly, sometimes on the same day that they're requested, and generally cost about $1,000 to $1,500 per child, depending on how much the child has had to say to the person who speaks with them. The [https://hearthechild.ca BC Hear the Child Society] has a roster of professionals who are trained to prepare non-evaluative views of the child reports, however not every professional who prepares the these reports is a member of the society and included in their roster.
