Parental Rights & Obligations

questions & answers

Question: Where can I find a court approved parenting class?

Answer:

In Arizona every parent of a natural or adopted un-emancipated minor child who files for divorce, separation, parenting time/custody, or any paternity proceeding in which a party has requested that the Superior Court determine custody, specific parenting time or child support must attend a Parent Education class. The Court may order attendance when parents are involved in a child support case or seek to change an order for custody or parenting time. (A.R.S. § 25-352).

There are Parent Education classes located in each county. Classes are offered at various times of the day or evening, during the week and on weekends in some counties. For a list of class locations, as well as the days and times the classes are offered, please contact the Clerk of Superior Court in your county.
