Parkdale, changing lives at the Steeple on Staples!
Divorce Care Support Group
Counter
DivorceCare groups meet weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward
rebuilding your life. Each DivorceCare session has two distinct elements:

A Seminar with Experts
During the first 30–40 minutes of the meeting, each DivorceCare group watches a video
seminar featuring top experts on divorce and recovery subjects. These videos are produced in
an interesting-to-watch television magazine format featuring expert interviews, real-life case
studies and on-location video.

A Support Group with Focus
After viewing the video, DivorceCare group participants spend time as a support group,
discussing what was presented in that week’s video seminar and what is going on in the lives
of group members.
Being a part of a DivorceCare divorce recovery support group



  • You’ll probably feel a little nervous about going to DivorceCare the first time. Those
    feelings go away quickly for most people, usually during the first session they attend.
    DivorceCare is a warm, caring environment designed to help you.
  • You’ll discover there are people who understand your hurts, emotions and painful
    experiences! In divorce, it’s common to feel isolated. In DivorceCare, you’ll find that you
    are not alone, that there are others who understand what you are going through.
  • You’ll learn helpful, practical information that will help you recover from your separation
    or divorce. The DivorceCare DVD videos feature top experts on divorce and recovery
    subjects and case studies of people just like you, who have been through the divorce
    experience.
  • You’ll have the chance to talk about your experiences. It can be very healing to tell others
    what you are going through. The support group sessions include a time to talk about what
    you’ve seen on the DivorceCare videos and what is going on in your life. And while you
    have the opportunity to tell your story, there’s never pressure for you to do so if you don’t
    feel like it.
  • You’ll become part of a “family.” DivorceCare group members often tell us that they feel
    like their group has become a family, that they made new friends and are around people
    they can relate to. DivorceCare is designed to be a safe environment, and dating
    relationships between group participants are not encouraged (to allow you time to focus
    on your personal healing).
  • Your children will have the opportunity to heal. Many DivorceCare groups also sponsor
    DivorceCare for Kids (DC4K) groups. DC4K is a fun environment for kids to learn how to
    work through the hurt of divorce. The DC4K program features videos, music, games, crafts
    and activities for children ages 5–12.
  • You’ll discover hope for the future. While things may look bleak now, you’ll learn ways to
    restore your hope and rebuild your life. Many DivorceCare alumni tell us that the program
    helped them move from adversity to becoming a better person.
