The Department of Justice has prepared this guide to help parents who are going through a separation or divorce. Your feedback is important. It will help the Department assess how useful the guide is to parents. It will also help to determine how future versions of this guide can be adjusted to better serve the needs of parents. We estimate that this survey will take you about 5 minutes to complete.
