Positive Parenting Classes for Florida

DCF-approved in person " Live "  4 hour Parent for all counties in Florida. This is the  Education and Family Stabilization  Class  also know as the "Parenting Class or Divorce Class ".

All parties to a dissolution of marriage proceeding with minor children or a paternity action that involves issues of parental responsibility shall be required to complete the 4  hour Parent Education and Family Stabilization Course prior to the entry by the court of a final judgment.  We encourage parents who are even just considering separating or divorcing to take our course. Additionally, parents who are separated, co-parenting, going through custody cases, fostering or adopting can take our course.

Currently, the parties in a divorce with minor children or in a paternity action (where matters of parental responsibility, i.e. custody and/or visitation, are being addressed) are required to attend an approved in-person parent and education and stabilization class. Florida Statute §61.21. This course meets those requirements.
