DivorceCare group starts by watching a video seminar featuring top experts on divorce recovery, insights from people who have walked through a divorce, and more.
After watching the video together, you and the other group members will discuss what was in the video and how it relates to what is going on in your life and theirs.
You will have an opportunity to study the divorce recovery process using your workbook during the week. Your workbook will help you journal to sort out your emotions. Your group will discuss workbook questions, and personal reflection comments the following week.
It’s normal to feel nervous about going to your first DivorceCare group. For most, the feelings go away quickly as they find DivorceCare a warm and caring environment where they can safely express feelings and work through the emotions of divorce and separation.

DivorceCare4Kids is a 13-week program for children ages 5–12 whose parents are going through separation and divorce to cope with the losses they are feeling. The activities, games, and music are designed to help them manage their emotions and communicate with their parents.
