How to Stay Sane During Your Divorce

On the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale, divorce is right up there with marriage and death of a family member as one of life’s most difficult experiences. And parenting during a break up can be extra challenging. The Parenting Apart: Family Transitions program aims to help divorcing parents cope with their stress and take control of their thoughts and reactions. This free five-week class, facilitated by accredited trainer Jade Aldrich, will run January 7–February 4 at Safe Passage in Fort Bragg. Snacks and child care will be provided.
