This organization provides family and couples treatment and helps divorcing partners resolve issues of child care; for instance, how to tell children about a divorce and how to keep the child from the center of conflict. Divorce is never a positive experience, says Garda Spaulding, director of intake, but we try to show parents how to keep it as benign as possible. |
