Local Singles and Couples Invited to Free Relationship Workshop
The Premarital Interpersonal Choices and Knowledge (PICK) program will be offered free for singles and couples who are dating or engaged. The program is sponsored by Marriage Works! Ohio, a department of Elizabeth’s New Life Center, and will be presented by Catholic Social Services of the Miami Valley.
This one day class will be held on Saturday, February 23, 8:30am-6:00pm. The class will be held at the Sidney YMCA, 300 E Parkwood Street, Sidney, OH. During this class, presenters will provide the tools needed to discern a partner’s compatibility and discuss ways to keep a relationship in balance. The program centers around the relationship attachment model (R.A.M.) developed by Dr. John Van Epp: Know, Trust, Rely, Commit, Touch. The program includes free course materials. Gift cards will be awarded for attendance and breakfast, lunch, and supper will be served. Childcare will be available upon request.
“Those who attend the workshop will have a unique opportunity to establish a positive relationship before choosing a commitment,” explained Rick Williams, CSS Lead Therapist and coordinator of the workshop programs. “We invite singles and couples who are dating or engaged to attend the free program where we share, laugh and learn about relationships.”
To register, area residents should call 800-521-6419 ext. 1119 or visit http://www.trustmarriage.com/pick.php to register online. Registration deadline for this class is February 18th.
