Parent separation and divorce can put a huge strain on the entire family. To help your family navigate this difficult and sometimes painful process, Hope Haven offers a parent education and stabilization course called Children First.

The course is designed to improve communication, minimize conflict and reduce litigation by providing your family with positive alternatives and practical, child-focused solutions. As a Department of Children and Families-approved provider of this course for Florida’s Fourth Judicial District, Hope Haven is also authorized to help your family and the court come up with a parenting plan that is in everyone’s best interest

Our focus is for in-person classes. But, we still have a small number of seats through Zoom with the use of live instructors. Hope Haven has obtained the approval of the Court for this temporary modification.

Please register below for the class you wish to take. You will need to have internet access with video and audio capabilities for the duration of your class if attending virtually. Clients will be contacted after registration with specific instructions on accessing the session.
