The Marriage School - Summer Session hosted at CHPC is a 12-week skills-based group program that helps couples build stronger, more fulfilling marriages. Each of the weekly sessions covers a different topic on a specific skill or tool to develop better understanding, communication, trust, sensitivity, listening skills, and more, which create a deeper, more intimate relationship.

Each topic demonstrates that we all lean toward one of two extremes that don’t work. Then, we show you the third option that does work. It's an educational group where attendees learn, encourage, and support each other. The Third Option is led by skilled facilitators and by couples who have overcome serious challenges in their marriages. Each session stands alone, so couples can start anytime in the cycle of topics and catch up later if they happen to miss a week or two.
