Professional Resources

Supporting estranged parents can be a long-term,  time-intensive endeavor. It also requires specialized knowledge about this growing phenomenon in our society.

This page has been designed for professional care-givers and their support staff who are serving patients, clients, and faith-community members who may be estranged from their adult children. 

We recognize that every person is an individual, and benefits from resources that are a good fit to them. This page suggests resources that may work best for different individuals and situations.
