Divorce Support Groups

Going through a divorce can be very stressful. You no longer have a partner to talk to and share activities with.  It can be an especially stressful time for single parents.  Fortunately, there are resources available such as divorce support groups to aid in reducing the stress.

One such divorce support group is DivorceCare which has groups that meet weekly to discuss challenges that divorce people face.  Each weekly session includes a video on divorce and recovery subjects and a follow-up discussion on what was in the video.  You can find more information at www.divorcecare.org.

Another group is Meetup which has activities such as hiking,picnicking,camping as well as educational webinars  for divorced parents.  You can find more information at https://www.meetup.com/topics/divorced-parents/

Other groups such as women's centers or divorced men's associations or local churches have divorce support groups. Check with your church or town to see if they have or know of a divorce support group you can join.

It is important to connect with other people who understand the problems you face and can offer support.
