Parenting After Separation Workshops expand to Behchoko and Hay River

The Parenting After Separation workshop is designed to help parents make positive transitions, both for their children and for themselves, after a separation or divorce. In these free workshops difficult issues are discussed and assistance is offered by facilitators for constructive resolutions. Ultimately, the goal is to make a painful process easier for both parents and their children.

“We want to continue to offer valuable help for those families in turmoil due to marriage breakdown,” said Minister of Justice David Ramsay. “With this workshop, families will have a better understanding of their legal situation and the ability to make better decisions for themselves and their children. While the program has been offered in Yellowknife, there is also demand in other communities. This expansion has started with the communities of Behchoko and Hay River.”

Parents interested in participating in a free workshop are asked to call 867-873-2473 or toll-free 1-877-776-2838. More information is available on the Parenting after separation page.

The Parenting After Separation workshop series continues in Yellowknife on a regularly scheduled basis and will be available as demand allows in smaller communities.
