Helping a Friend or Family Member Through Divorce
A marital separation is a time of turmoil for everyone involved.  Regardless of the length of marriage, who left whom, whether or not there are children or how old they are, the separation signifies a rupture in the marital relationship.  The family unit can never be the same.  It is a time when those going through it need the support of friends and family.

Here are a few tips, excerpted from our free pamphlet:

*Don't try to figure out who is the "Good Guy" and who is the "Bad Guy."

*Express your concern, just as you would about any other life event.

*Call or write periodically.

*Continue to include the person in social gatherings, but don't invite both partners to the same event.

*Give a hug.

*Offer to go with the person to an attorney.

*Listen.  Listen.  Listen some more.

The full pamphlet is available free upon request and in quantity.
