Step-Family Workshop

When two people come together in a second marriage, whether it is a second marriage for both or just one, it is usually more complicated than the beginning of a first marriage, especially if there are children involved. How can we treat the children equally? What about my ex-in laws? Have I put closure to my feelings over the annulment process? It takes work to resolve the day-to-day living differences and to acquire a feeling of "family."

The Step Family Workshop is designed to help couples through this sometimes difficult period. The Step Family workshop is designed for couples entering a second marriage or in the early stages of a second marriage. It is designed for people with children of all ages. Workshops are led by trained couples who have been through the Annulment Process and are in second marriages.
