The Problem: Sustainable Marriage, Divorce Collaboration, and the Particle Family

We all enter our marriages assuming that it will last forever; unfortunately, this is not always the case. In fact nearly 50% of all marriages end in divorce, creating years of unsettling changes, especially for the children. This shift away from the “nuclear family” lifestyle has produced the following statistics:

A New York Times article reports “ as researchers clamber to catch up, fatherhood has turned into the hottest stop on the social science circuit, and demographically, single fathers are the fastest-growing family group in the workforce”

According, to the University of Southern California, direct expenses for contested divorces just within the top 2% of income earners represent a 4 billion-dollar industry.

There are approximately 10 million single fathers with children under 18 years of age.

The target population increases by approximately one million NEW fathers each year in the US alone. These men are looking for unique services and a community of support to help them navigate troubled waters and regain their stability. They seek encouraging and enabling solutions that help them tend to their children's well being, and lead the family through these unsettling passages.
