Family Matters

The Family Matters group series helps children ages 6-17 address feelings they have when their parents are going through separation or divorce. Children learn coping skills that assist them in expressing their feelings through drawing, writing, and talking with other children. Family Matters group materials are delivered in age appropriate groups.

Family Matters strives to help children

• Recognize and work through painful feelings
• Understand their feelings are normal and that they are not alone
• Communicate their feelings and concerns about divorce
• Develop problem-solving and coping skills
• Understand they are not to blame for their parents' divorce
