Parenting & Co Parenting Programs
Court-Approved Parenting and Co Parenting Programs for Stronger, Healthier Families and Relationships

What is Parenting & Co Parenting Programs?
Parenting and Co parenting programs are structured courses that guide divorced, separated, or unmarried parents raising children in two homes. Family courts often require these programs during custody disputes, legal mediation, or separation processes. They teach how to co parent effectively by reducing conflict and protecting children’s emotional and mental health. Parents gain essential skills in healthy co parenting, communication, and building reliable routines and boundaries.
At the Court Counseling Institute, we offer programs for co-parenting tailored for legal or family-related challenges. Each course teaches parents how to have a healthy co-parenting relationship, even in difficult circumstances. Parents learn conflict resolution, positive decision-making, and how to follow co-parenting agreements.
These aren’t just lessons, they’re opportunities to change patterns, shift perspectives, and grow. With the right support, parents create stable, loving homes where children feel safe and supported. Our co-parenting classes are ideal for anyone wanting to become a stronger, more child-focused parent.

Frequently Asked Questions About Parenting & Co Parenting Programs
Are these parenting & co parenting programs accepted by court?
Do I get a letter at the end of the parenting & co parenting program?
Yes. Upon successful completion, clients in group classes or online courses receive an official Letter of Completion. Those enrolled in parenting or co-parenting therapy receive a detailed, personalized 2–3 page report summarizing their progress. Additional legal verification letters are available upon request. Letter of Completion and reports are only issued once all course requirements have been met, including attendance, participation, and assignment submissions. This ensures both therapeutic integrity and legal compliance. Clients are encouraged to complete all tasks thoroughly and on time to receive documentation that is recognized by family courts, attorneys, child protection agencies, and related legal professionals.
What happens if I miss a session or don’t finish the parenting & co parenting program I enrolled in?
Full participation is mandatory for all parenting and co-parenting programs. If a client misses a session, arrives late, or fails to meet course obligations, they must re-register and restart the program. This policy ensures the integrity of our court-approved curriculum and supports consistent learning outcomes. No partial credit or documentation will be provided for incomplete participation. Maintaining regular attendance is especially important for those with court or child protection involvement, as failure to complete the program in full may affect compliance with legal or custody-related orders. Always notify staff in advance if a scheduling issue arises.
Can I complete the parenting & co parenting program I enrolled in on my own time?
Yes. The Court Counseling Institute offers self-paced online parenting and co-parenting programs that allow clients to learn on their own schedule. These programs include video content, written lessons, quizzes, and reflection assignments. While flexible, they are structured to ensure full compliance with court mandates. Every assignment is reviewed by program supervisors to verify participation and learning. Letter of Completion or reports are only issued when all components are successfully completed. This option is ideal for parents with busy schedules who need a court-approved program that still meets the highest standards of therapeutic quality and accountability.
How do I choose the right parenting & co parenting program format?
Choosing the right program depends on your court requirements, availability, learning style, and individual family needs. Options include live group classes, therapy sessions, and self-paced online courses. Clients should first consult their attorney, court officer, or family services provider to determine what type of program is acceptable. Then, review each program’s structure and expectations to find the best fit. Our team can help explain differences between options and provide documentation outlining each format’s compliance with court or agency standards. The goal is to match you with a program that supports lasting family change and meets your legal obligations.
Are more than one session per week available in the parenting & co parenting therapy programs?
Yes. Parents enrolled in therapy programs can choose to accelerate their progress by attending up to three sessions per week, rather than the standard weekly format. This flexibility can be helpful for those under tight legal deadlines or preparing for court proceedings. However, fast-tracking is only permitted with formal written approval from the court, attorney, or caseworker. Clients must submit documentation authorizing an accelerated schedule before proceeding. Our therapists will then coordinate a suitable plan that ensures therapeutic effectiveness while meeting time-sensitive requirements. Fast-track schedules are subject to clinician availability and client readiness.
Are the parenting & co parenting programs offered online?
Yes. All of the Court Counseling Institute’s parenting and co-parenting programs are delivered online through secure, easy-to-access platforms. This includes live video sessions, self-paced courses, and virtual therapy. While online, these programs maintain the same rigorous standards as in-person services, including full participation, assignment completion, and professional oversight.
