Post Separation Parenting Program ...
The course is suitable for all separated parents where conflict in the partner relationship is interfering with the task of parenting co-operatively in separation. It fulfils the requirements of Section 65LA when parents are in breach of existing Orders; or are at risk of breaching Orders.
The course is not suitable for parents who are looking only for parenting skills training. While some sessions look at parenting skills, the primary focus is on the post-separation relationship between the parents, and how to establish a co-operative parenting regime.
