One of the heartbreaking aspects of family break-up is seeing the effects on the children caught in the middle.   In 2001, judges at the Family Law Center asked if NewDay would come up with a program that would help children through the crisis.

The program was launched in January of 2002.

Kid’s Quest is a four hour workshop designed to help children and teenagers whose parents are going through divorce or family break-up.   By helping them identify and communicate their feelings, NewDay places hurting children on a pathway that leads to healing.

For children, ages 4 – 17:  They are divided into groups based on age.  Ages 4 – 12 will rotate through a series of centers where they participate in crafts designed to help them identify feelings and validate them.   Teens ages 13 – 17 hang out with caring leaders who listen and provide a safe place for them to express feelings and issues.
