Abstract
Finding effective interventions and best practices for families during the divorce or separation process has been prevalent for many years due to the continuous impact that divorce has on families and the greater society. To meet the needs of the community, two mental health professionals developed and facilitated a parent education course targeting the reduction of coparental conflict. Due to the unique attributes of the course, researchers began a quantitative study of the program by having participants complete pre- and post-surveys. The final sample for this study consisted of 212 parent participants. Findings from the data are reported along with implications for facilitators, program developers, mental health providers, and future researchers.
