  • DivorceCare for Kids
  • For children 1st grade and above. Are your children angry, hurt and confused about your divorce? Finding help for your children can be frustrating. DivorceCare for Kids, DC4K, provides a safe, fun place where your children will:
  • -Learn to understand their feelings
  • -Express their emotions appropriately
  • -Feel better about themselves
  • -Develop coping skills
  • -Be introduced to biblical concepts that will bring comfort

  • Some children struggle deeply with the separation and divorce, while others seem to bounce back quickly. In the long run, all children are affected.

As your children begin to heal from the pain and confusion, their relationships with you, God and others will grow healthy and strong. Childcare available for children under 1st grade.
