Why Parenting Facilitation Matters
Parenting Facilitation is a court-ordered process that is different from counseling or therapy. It focuses on practical solutions to co-parenting disputes rather than emotional or psychological treatment. While facilitators may provide support, the primary role is to help parents comply with court orders and protect the child’s best interest.
For Court Compliance: Ensures all parenting agreements and schedules are followed as outlined in court orders or divorce decrees.
For the Child’s Well-Being: Reduces stress and confusion caused by ongoing parental conflict.
For Parental Cooperation: Encourages effective, child-centered communication and problem-solving.
Core Goals of Our Parenting Facilitation Service
Reduce conflict and hostility between parents.
Support consistent and child-focused decision-making.
