Abstract: (1223 Views)
Background: Divorce is the legal dissolution of marriage and the legal cancellation of duties and responsibilities of
marriage between couples, which has been growing recently in Iran. Preventing and decreasing divorce and its
complications are among the programs of the welfare organization. The present study aimed to explain the goals, service
model, challenges, and solutions for the improvement of this program.
Methods: A qualitative study was conducted in 2016 and selected 31 managers and experts from departments of the welfare
organization in provinces of Iran, 21 members of public mediators and beneficiary organizations, and 6 senior managers
and senior experts from the social deputy of the welfare organization using the purposive sampling method. Data were
collected by three methods, documentary analysis, focus group discussion, and in-depth individual interview, and were
analyzed using content analysis
Results: The divorce prevention and reduction program was designed in three stages, before marriage, during divorce, and
after divorce. The challenges of the program included multi-work with the involved organizations, insufficient information
by the mass media, mental exhaustion of couples and insisting on divorce, the lack of a coherent program in the Supreme
Council of the Cultural Revolution (SCCR), the lack of human resources, insufficient financial credits, and couples'
unwillingness to consult after judicial registration. The suggested solutions to improve the program include coordination
with the comprehensive plan of the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution, eliminating inter-organizational multiwork
in the welfare organization, increasing financial credits, creating electronic files for applicant couples, following up
on the status of children within the divorce process, developing a divorce reduction protocol based on new approaches to
family therapy, implementation of educational programs, mandatory counseling before marriage, and approval and
amendment of some judicial laws.
Conclusion: Despite the growing trend of divorce in society and the implementation of the divorce prevention and reduction
program in the welfare organization, this program is facing personal, organizational, and national challenges. It is useful to
use strategies to modify the goal and structure, measures to finance and improve the service mechanism, attract cooperation,
and obtain permits to improve the current status.
