Abstract
Divorce after remarriage occurs at a rate of approximately 65%. Instances of multiple divorce threaten the physical, emotional and socio-economic well-being of both adults and children involved in stepfamilies. Remarriage and stepfamily education programming is needed to begin an attempt to reduce the incidence of stepfamily breakdown.
In an effort to reduce divorce rates in second (or subsequent) marriages, and to increase individual satisfaction in stepfamily life, this project discusses current research in the area of stepfamilies. The website designed using that research is an easily accessible information distribution vehicle, which aims to promote education and support for stepfamilies and those who work with them.
