DivorceCare Support Groups
DivorceCare Support Groups are held across the country in various locations for 13-week sessions. The weekly sessions begin with the group watching a video seminar on a specific divorce topic.
Some of the weekly themes include topics such as dealing with ager and loneliness, financial survival, effects of divorce on children and families, forgiveness and new relationships. After the video session the group spends the rest of the time discussing the topic presented and sharing ideas with others going through similar experiences.
