Through its sustained investment in supporting Minnesota families affected by divorce or separation with its Parents Forever™1 parent education program and its partnership with Hennepin County’s Co-parent Court2 project, University of Minnesota Extension is able to explore the intersection of research about coparenting with the practice of court-mandated parent education programs for both divorcing and separating nevermarried parents. Thus, this article summarizes the latest research findings on selected coparenting issues that have practical importance to both divorcing and nevermarried parents living apart. This article also highlights recent research on the practice of parent education as it affects both divorcing and separated never-married parents, as well as a foundational discussion of coparenting issues and parent-education practice from the experiences and perspectives of parent-education stakeholders. We, the authors, also have included illustrative quotations from stakeholders in the Parents Forever™ program and in Hennepin County Coparent Court — quotations cited in recent studies of the Parents Forever™ program (PF) (Olson, Brady & Marzcak, 2012) and Co-parent Court (CPC) (Hardman, Ruhland & Becher, 2014).Item Coparenting in the Digital Era: Exploring Divorced Parents' Use of Technology(Emerald Group Publishing Limited, 2016) Dworkin, Jodi; McCann, Ellie; McGuire, Jenifer K.Purpose The current study was designed to examine how and why divorced parents use computers and the Internet for communication with their coparent and with their child(ren).

Findings Analyses revealed that divorced parents are active users of technology, for communicating with their child(ren) as well as with the child(ren)’s other parent. In addition, parents were comfortable using the Internet and accessing online parenting information, citing few barriers to use.Item Dollar Works 2: Impact Evaluation Report(University of Minnesota Extension, Center for Family Development, 2011-01-06) Bauer, Jean W; Son, Seohee; Hur, Ju; Anderson-Porisch, Shirley; Heins, Rosemary; Petersen, Cindy; Hooper, Susan; Marczak, Mary; Olson, Patricia D; Barrett Wiik, NormanDollar Works 2 education is effective for money behaviors, financial satisfaction, and access to financial information when delivered in a six-hour dosage.
