COURSE DESCRIPTION

“Two Parents, Two Homes” and "Children First in Divorce" are education courses for separating and/or divorcing parents who have minor children or those involved in a paternity action involving issues of shared parenting. The programs focus on the concerns parents have regarding their decision to divorce, or parent separately, and the impact this process will have on their children.

Using a classroom format, instructors will provide information through lecture, video, role play, and discussion. The topics include: The Six Tasks of Divorce, The Grief Process, What Children Need to Hear, Typical Reactions, What Kids Need to do to Adjust, and How Parents Can Help.

This program will provide an opportunity for parents to learn more effective ways of communicating with each other in order to make decisions that are in the best interest of their child(ren).
