This site-specific protocol was developed for a multi-county coalition organized for several key purposes: (a) identify and publicize scholarly research regarding the value of activities that produce safe,successful family relationships, including marriage; (b) increase the accessibility of those sources of marriage education and family support that are already available; (c) increase the quantity, variety, and quality of sources; and (d) increase couples’ interest in accessing these supports. The Healthy Marriage Coalition itself does not provide marriageeducation or other services directly, but motivates and supports others to do so. This protocol describeshow they will work with their coalition partners to ensure that each addresses domestic violence issues appropriately, and the kinds of tools and resources that they will provide to them.
