About Us
This service helps children who have no other way of maintaining personal contact with their parent in custody at the AMC.
Regular supported transport allows the child or young person to gain a better understanding of their situation and maintain positive parent-child relationships.
Our trained transport staff and volunteers are skilled at negotiating the correctional system so the visits are more positive for the children and their carers.

Transport Notes
Visitors must arrive at least 45 mins prior to their scheduled visit. This is to enable time for processing and a mandatory RAT test. If you arrive at the AMC less than 45 mins before your scheduled visit you will not be allowed to attend the visit.
Volunteer Notes
Volunteers can assist in transporting children and supervising children during a visit with their parent in custody where the legal guardian is not available to do so. Contact for further details.
