Bring hope to the hurting
DivorceCare allows your church to become a source of care and support for people who have experienced separation or divorce. This 13-week, video-based support group provides practical tools for coping and points people to Christ for healing and hope.
Volunteer-led ministry
DivorceCare is a turnkey program designed to be led by volunteers. Everything laypeople need to start and run a 13-week support group is provided with the DivorceCare kit. Plus, they’ll have ongoing, free support from our ministry coaches.
“DivorceCare empowers laypeople.”
Grateful participants
For the past 25 years, over 1 million people have been through a DivorceCare program hosted by the local church. And they’ve repeatedly shared that their DivorceCare group was a lifeline for them after separation and divorce.
“The fruit we’ve seen is transformed lives.”
Expanded outreach
Many churches report that over 85% of group attendees are not from their church, and half do not have an active spiritual life and are not followers of Christ.
“One of the most effective, healing outreaches of our church.”
Trusted teaching
This Christ-centered program helps people apply biblical principles as they heal from the hurt of separation and divorce. The videos feature respected Christian counselors and pastors, and participants see how the gospel brings hope and restoration.
“The materials are biblically based, psychologically sound, and time tested.”
DivorceCare coach Kathy Fallon explains how we’ll do the work of getting a group started at your church and equipping your lay volunteer to run it. It’s free!

How to fund your ministry
Participant Pay option
This feature makes it easier for churches to start up a DivorceCare ministry because the church doesn’t pay for the participant guides! People can register for your group and pay for their book online. Their participant guides will be shipped directly to their house.
Recoup your cost
Most DivorceCare groups charge participants a $20–$25 registration fee that covers the cost of the participant guide ($20) plus other expenses such as publicity, refreshments, and child care. Over time, registration fees could, in effect, reimburse the church for the cost of the kit.
Find a sponsor
It’s likely there are people in your church who have a passion for divorce recovery ministry. Perhaps they’ve been through divorce personally and have a passion to help others. Why not ask someone, or a group, to consider gifting your church with a DivorceCare kit?
