The NHJB-2064-FS form, issued by the State of New Hampshire Judicial Branch, serves as a crucial document for parents navigating the complexities of divorce, legal separation, or any legal case pertaining to the custody and care of their children. Known as the Parenting Plan, this form encompasses a wide array of decisions and arrangements that parents must consider and agree upon for the welfare of their children. It is meticulously designed to handle everything from decision-making responsibilities and residential arrangements to detailed schedules for holidays, vacations, day-to-day living, and even supervised parenting times. Reflecting the state’s commitment to the best interests of the child, it upholds a core policy that emphasizes the importance of frequent and continuous contact with both parents whenever possible. The form acknowledges the dynamic nature of family life by allowing for temporary, final, or modified plans, accommodating the family's needs until all issues are resolved or incorporating the arrangements into the court's final order. Additionally, it aims to foster a cooperative environment where parents can craft a plan with professional help, avoiding contention and focusing on their children's needs. The ultimate goal of the NHJB-2064-FS form is to support the creation of a structured but flexible parenting plan that facilitates a healthy, nurturing, and stable environment for children going through the transition of their parents' separation or divorce.
