The Point Rencontre – Jura Bernois provides children with a third, protected and secure space in which to exercise their visiting rights or exchange information between parents. It enables them to create, enrich and maintain a bond with the parent who does not share their daily life. The Point Rencontre is a transitional space where relationships can change and evolve, with the idea that meetings without intermediaries will one day be possible.

The ‘Point Rencontre’ is a working space for parents with an access order when no other solution is possible, with the aim of enabling the child to meet both parents, beyond the difficulties linked to their separation.
The aim is to enable the child to structure and develop with the parents who are his or her own and in the conditions of security that are his or her due.
