Co-Parenting for Successful Kids

“Co-parenting for Successful Kids” is a research-based education class designed to help separating and divorcing parents cope with divorce and custody.
The goal of this class is to develop respectful, responsive, and responsible co-parents. Parents learn how to answer their children’s questions about the separation/divorce, and how to keep their children safe and out of the parents’ conflict. 

“Co-parenting for Successful Kids” strengthens communication skills that can improve interactions between children and parents.
In person classes may be scheduled by appointment at several locations across Nebraska. Instruction will include educational presentations, videos and booklets. A Spanish interpreter is available upon request.
Cost is $55. Reduced fees are available for income-eligible participants — locate application at child.unl.edu/coparenting or call to request 855-308-8037
