No, our workshops offer relationship education to couples and individuals as well as essential skills to promote success in the workplace while learning more about personal strengths. Our program will help you learn effective communication strategies, gain tools to cope with stressful situations, learn to listen and be heard and improve conflict management skills to positively impact careers and relationships. Every participant is assigned a Family Case Manager. They provide participants with information and resources as needed.
If you are participating with your partner/significant other, both of you will be placed in the same group. However, if you chose to participate in our program with another couple to attend as friends, we cannot guarantee that you will be assigned to the same group.

Our Relationship intervention (ORI) is a scientifically-based and empirically tested online method of teaching relationship education. ORI was developed to serve as an online tool to help couples solve a specific relationship problem they selected, therefore allowing for individual tailoring based on needs. ORI has been shown to be effective in four separate randomized controlled trials involving over 2,500 couples (5,000 individuals).
The PREP approach is a scientifically-based and empirically-tested method of teaching relationship education. It is based on over 30 years of research in the field of relationship health, with much of the research conducted at the University of Denver, and sponsored by the National Institute of Health.
