Connolly, Marianne E.; Green, Eric J.
Journal of School Counseling, v7 n26 p1-37 2009
Parental divorce has become increasingly common for large numbers of families in schools (Lamden, King, & Goldman, 2002). This article addresses the effects of divorce on children and protective factors supporting their adjustment. Evidence-based interventions for children of divorce in elementary school counseling programs are discussed. School-based consultation, the Children of Divorce Intervention Program, and the Children's Support Group are three evidence-based practices described. Implications for schools counselors are provided to help integrate research findings and practice.
