Who We Serve:
Marriage Works Supports Marriages in All Stages of Life
Single Parents
Marriage Works focuses on future marriages not past mistakes. We can provide information on what to look for in a new spouse and how to sustain a healthy marriage.
Divorced
75% of divorced people remarry within four years of their divorce but second marriages have a high failure rate. Our training improves odds of a successful re-marriage.
Blended Family
His, hers, ours, and someone elses. Blended families have special challenges. Marriage Works can help blended families navigate those challenges
Empty Nesters
When the kids leave home it is time to rediscover yourself and strengthen your marriage. Marriage Works can help you define this new chapter in your marriage.
