Teller County Court Approved Parenting & Divorce Class. One time 4 hour class including book, materials, and certificate of completion for yourself &/or court needs.

“The 5 ways to avoid Divorce Abuse class was absolutely amazing in changing my perspective from getting lost in the emotion of my separation and how it was hurting me, to focusing on the person likely far more confused and hurt by the transition, my daughter. It really shifted my focus on everything and made everything else going on not matter so much. Really what matters is my daughter and how she comes out of this, and it gives you great tools to make sure your child comes out of it great. (The tools work, use them!)”
