fter 25 years of helping fami-
lies cope with death and
divorce, SPACE for Changing
Families will be starting new
and innovative support groups for adults
and children in the fall.
Created by board members of the
National Council of Jewish Women and
interested community volunteers,
SPACE for Changing Families helps
individuals and families in time of need.
Run by mental health professionals as
well as volunteer facilitators who train in
a five-week program, groups run from
5-10 weeks in the SPACE office on
Lahser Road in Southfield.
"Being in a group with other people
going through a similar life event is reas-
suring," said Judy Kotzen of Oak Park,
director of SPACE. "Just walking
through the door and knowing you are
not alone is a big help in and of itself"
Kotzen said the groups not only
reach out to those feeling scared and
-alone, but also offer an educational
component — understanding the differ-
ent stages of dealing with death and
divorce.
"Individuals experiencing loss,
whether through divordt or death, find
comfort in having their feelings and
reactions validated by others going
though similar circumstances," said
Rhoda Medow of Beverly Hills, a
founding member of SPACE and a cur-
rent bereavement group facilitator.
This fall, SPACE will be offering a
group for adults dealing with divorce.
"Moving On," a group beginning Sept.
6, will help men and women deal with
the painful or ambivalent feelings sur-
rounding a divorce or separation.
SPACE'S "Rainbows for All
Children," a group that has been offered
for 15 years, "has helped children talk
about the hurt and confusion of a
divorce," Kotzen said. "One of the most
important things I think the children
get out of coming to Rainbows is that
they learn that divorce is not their fault.
Many children blame themselves for
their parents failed marriage."
Peggy Frank of West Bloomfield,
who has facilitated the adult divorce
group for 10 years, said, "Parents are not
aware of the stress a divorce can cause a
child. Society wants to believe that chil-
dren are resilient, but they need a lot of
