Please meet Joshua who loves to play soccer. "My parents are divorced and I've been living in two houses for a really long time. When my family started the Family Workshop, I told my mom and dad that I really wish they would both come to my soccer games together like all the other kids on my team. Last night, they came to my game and sat near each other. My friends all noticed and it was awesome!" - Joshua, age 11, Family Workshop Graduate
With almost 50% of marriages ending in divorce, Joshua's story is just one of many! Since 1996, our mission has been to promote, secure and support the well-being of children experiencing family separations so children can worry less about their family situation and focus more on being a kid. "I used to feel sad when my parents argued all the time, but they listened to me and NOW, we're all getting along better, even though we have 2 houses!" - Jamie, age 9 , Family Workshop Graduate
"When I think of being a military kid, it means unity, peace, loyalty, brave, sustainable and freedom. This is what my mom and dad do for us!" - Cassie, age 12, Peak Performance Military Family Class
