If this bill had been passed, it would have required that starting January 1st, 2022, all parents of a minor child who have petitioned for divorce, and parents who have petitioned for child custody or visitation, must participate in a parent education program. The purpose of the program is to help parents understand the impact of divorce and restructuring of families, methods for preventing parenting time conflicts, and dispute resolution options.
