Parenting After Separation

“Parenting After Separation” is a three-hour information session for parents, sponsored by the Ministry of Attorney General.  It’s purpose is to help parents make informed choices about their separation which take into account the best interests of their children.  The session is led by facilitators who are experienced in helping families through this difficult time.

Who attends “Parenting After Separation” and when?

Parenting After Separation is available to all adults who are dealing with issues of child custody, access, guardianship and /or support.  The sessions are available at various times.  Specific information for your community is available upon registration.  If both parents are registered, they will attend separate Parenting After Separation sessions.

In some communities in British Columbia parents must attend a Parenting After Separation session before going to court on matters such as custody, access, guardianship and/or child support.  This also includes changing an existing order for custody, access, guardianship and /or support.  The court registry in which you file your application can inform you if attendance is mandatory.
