Kids in Divorce Support Group (Dallas & Fort Worth)
KIDWorks (Kids In Divorce) is a free support group program for children ages 5 to 18 who are experiencing the painful effects of divorce. Children share through play, drama and art, with the support of trained facilitators. Kids are able to express their shared feelings of loss and major life changes due to divorce. At KIDWorks we believe children need special help to overcome the loss and change in their life after a divorce. Honoring that healing process is a necessary step to maintaining healthy relationships in the future.
This cycle begins on September 13th at 6:30pm.

For 31 years, the Celebrate the Children Auction has been the flagship event for ChristianWorks for Children fundraising. Held in the beautiful Dallas Ballroom, the evening is filled with a silent auction of over 350 items, a fabulous dinner, a live auction of trips, and one-of-a-kind experiences, features a speaker and ends with the gift of a live concert.
It’s a wonderful Saturday night to invite friends and family, colleagues and neighbors, into the ministries of ChristianWorks—a mix of fundraising, fellowship, friend reunions, and a lot of fun!
Most importantly, this special night allows all that gather to do something amazing for the children of Dallas together that none could do alone.
