Written By Adah Koivula

I’m proud to work with the fantastic nonprofit FamilyKind as a legal educator for their parent education classes. If you’re not familiar with FamilyKind, they support families in transition during times of separation or divorce, including parent education, mediation and parenting coordination.

FamilyKind is launching a peer-to-peer free webinar series for professionals, which I will be co-hosting on Monday, May 18th at 1:00 p.m.

Future webinars continue on the 3rd Monday of each month.

The parent education classes that FamilyKind provides are an incredible resource for families, and I hope to see many of my professional colleagues there!
