During Joanna’s experience working in nonprofit settings with children and teens, she saw a great need for resources that support families to develop healthy relationship patterns. She has a B.S. in Youth and Family Ministries from Cairn University where she was educated on supporting families through the many stages of life.

Joanna is excited to be working on the development of programs and resoures that will help families at every stage of their lives. For more information about The Divorce Recovery Center programs, please contact Joanna at at JDiRenzo@divorcerecoverycenter.org .

Denise Palmer

Director of Programming & Outreach

Having moved through a very difficult divorce 4 years ago, Denise feels a strong calling to support others as they navigate through this extremely challenging transition. She recalls how traumatizing it was for her; how she had no idea where to turn or what to do to help her through the difficulties; and how she resisted joining divorce groups that could have helped her. Denise brings a warm compassion, expansive knowledge and abundance of creative resources to every person with whom she speaks. .

Denise is a graduate of Gannon University and has managed organizations in the non-profit and for-profit sectors. She is most proud of her four children, strong family ties and enduring friendships.
