Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine children's perceptions of the Families In TransitionProgram, a court mandated divorce education program In Louisville, Kentucky. Qualitative research methods were used to develop an in-depth understanding of children's perceptions. Forty children between the ages of 8-16 were administered a qualitative instrument linked to the goals of the program. The results indicated that children felt that the program provided information to help them cope with divorce related problems and helped them understand the effects of divorce on their parents' behavior. The study also outlines specific recommendations to better address the needs of children who attend the program.
