Children whose parents are going through a divorce may not show outward signs of distress but would still benefit from support. CODIP will help reduce the stress of parental divorce for children and teach them skills to cope with its challenges.

CODIP is for children aged 7-12 years and is free-of-charge.

The programme takes place over 6 sessions of 2 hours each. The following topics will be covered:

    1. Understanding and coping with changes in the family
    2. Solving Problems
    3. Child-Parent relationships
    4. Understanding and dealing with anger
    5. Enhancing self-esteem

There will also be a 1-hour introductory session for parents to better understand the programme and how to support their children’s learning.

Early findings indicate that after completing CODIP, participating children showed improvements in emotional-behavioural outcomes (e.g. sadness, conflict with others) compared to before the programme.
