Marriage Counseling

Married couples face many challenges in their relationships. Marriage counseling can help couples navigate through their issues and improve their relationship. Share It Forward® has teamed up with Focus on the Family’s Hope Restored – a program available to all married couples in need of help or just a “tune up” regardless of their financial need. Share It Forward pays 80% of the program cost, the employee and spouse pay the remaining 20%.

 

Marriage Intensives

Thousands of marriages, situations as complex and painful as yours, have been transformed with the help of professionals who understand where you are right now and care deeply about where you and your spouse wind up in the future. The Intensive Experience, through the Focus on the Family’s Hope Restored are personalized, intimate programs for restoring individuals and rebuilding marriages. Our all-inclusive programs are more than couples counseling, more than a plan to stop divorce or a weekend session at a church. Intensive Experiences are new beginnings, even for husbands and wives who think all hope is lost.

A variety of programs exist for employees seeking help. Employees are encouraged to review the Focus on the Family’s Hope Restored website and then call Hope Restored (866.875.2915) to speak with a trained consultant.  The consultant will help determine which program best suits the couple’s situation.

The overall program costs are subsidized by SIF, however if financial assistance is needed to cover the employee’s 20% contribution, the employee may apply for hardship assistance.

Focus on the Family’s Hope Restored has two campuses, one located in Rome, Georgia and the other in Branson, Missouri.  Couples who attend are treated to either group or individual marriage counseling, luxury accommodations and meals while at the Institute.
