The PREPARE/ENRICH program can help you build a stronger marriage.

What is the PREPARE/ENRICH Program?
The PREPARE/ENRICH is a program based on a set of five inventories that examine major relationship issues a couple may experience. These inventories must be administered by a trained PREPARE/ENRICH Counselor and include 6-10 feedback sessions in which the counselor facilitates discussion between the couple based on their inventory results.

What are the major goals of the PREPARE/ENRICH Program?
There are six goals of the PREPARE/ENRICH Program. In order to achieve these goals there are also six corresponding couple exercises designed to help couples improve their relationship skills. The six goals are:

To explore Relationship Strengths and Growth Areas
To learn Assertiveness and Active Listening Skills
To learn how to resolve conflict using the Ten Step Model
To help the couple discuss their Family-of-Origin
To help the couple with financial planning and budgeting
To focus on personal, couple and family goals
