All relationship education programs at
LifeWorks are about healthy relationships. They are not based on a religious
perspective or have a particular view about how relationships should be. They
are designed primarily to raise couples' levels of awareness about their
relationship and themselves and are an opportunity to think about what goes
into creating a healthy marriage or committed relationship.
The aim is to assist couples explore
their relationship strengths and to think carefully about their relationship
into the future. Our programs are not intended to change your mind about your
decision to marry but to enrich your relationship and provide knowledge and
skills that you can use.

This means that couples are encouraged to share their experiences if they feel
comfortable to do so, as well as having time to work independently with their
partner. It is ideal for first marriages or for couples investigating the
potential of their relationship. It is also suitable for those who are living
together and are planning marriage.
