What We Do Wednesday: A Continuum of Support

Every family's journey is different, which is why ICCJ offers a continuum of child-centered services.

Whether it's:
✔️ Legal representation for children
✔️ Child-Focused Mediation
✔️ Parenting Coordination
✔️ Youth Divorce Workshops

our mission remains the same: helping children feel heard, supported, and protected during times of family transition.

No matter where a family is in the process, we're here to help keep children's best interests at the center.

💙 Because every child deserves the chance to thrive.

What We Do Wednesday: Teaching Kids Skills to Cope with Divorce

Divorce results in dramatic lifestyle changes for everyone involved, but these changes are even more difficult for children who may feel overwhelmed or left out.

Children often have questions and emotions they don't know how to express during a family separation. Our Youth Divorce Workshops provide a safe, supportive space with trained facilitators where children can:
💙 Learn healthy coping skills
💙 Build resilience
💙 Meet other children experiencing similar situations
💙 Understand that the divorce is not their fault

These workshops help children gain confidence and develop the tools they need to navigate change in healthy ways.

Who speaks for the child?

At the Iowa Center for Children's Justice (ICCJ), our attorneys represent children involved in high-conflict custody cases. Their role is to ensure each child's best interests remain at the forefront throughout the legal process.

When children have a dedicated advocate, they have someone focused entirely on their safety, stability, and well-being.

Every child deserves a voice.
