Based on promoting effective co-parenting, this webinar relates learning how to be a successful co-parent to learning your ABC's. This makes the content easy to understand and remember. Families who are experiencing separation, divorce, or any other type of family restructuring come from all backgrounds. Working with clients around the impact of family restructuring on children transcends many cultures. Participants will learn strategies and tools for effective co-parenting through the use of vignettes highlighting separated, non-custodial and two-parent households.
