What is a parenting coordinator?

A parenting coordinator is a professional appointed by the court in a collaborative divorce law in Mississippi to help families create workable co-parenting plans. This could include setting up a formal or informal parenting plan to divide parenting responsibilities, reaching agreements on parenting issues, and providing educational resources and information. The parenting coordinator also helps families keep communication open, particularly if there is conflict between the parents. Parenting coordinators are there to provide third-party guidance and can step in if parents are unable to reach an agreement and refer them to other resources or specialists if needed. Parenting coordinators also monitor the implementation of the parenting plan and can make recommendations to adjust the plan if necessary. Ultimately, parenting coordinators help reduce stress and conflict during a divorce so that both parents can stay involved in their children’s lives and efficiently manage parenting responsibilities.
