II. Marriage Enrichment Tools
II. Marriage Enrichment Tools 1. The Couple Checkup: Couples were encouraged to take a free Couple Checkup, an online assessment tool designed to identify the unique relationship strengths and growth areas of dating, engaged, or married couples. Based on the results of a tailored premarital or marital inventory, couples immediately received an extensive Couple Checkup Report on their relationship, including a Discussion Guide designed to help them learn proven relationship skills. Research has shown this process improves relationships by stimulating honest dialogue, increasing understanding, and empowering couples. Methods of Enrichment The Couple Checkup is based on the widely used PREPARE/ ENRICH® Program. Strong Marriages Florida integrated the Couple Checkup online widget into their website, and created a landing page at www.TakeTheCheckup.com for couples to register and receive a voucher code if they did not have a restaurant receipt. (See Appendix B for a sample Couple Checkup Report page.) 2. Date Nights: The Date Nights were designed with help from David and Claudia Arp, authors of the 10 Great Dates book series. Working with the team from West Palm Beach, they drafted discussion outlines for topic-specific date nights. These were presented as “Date Night Menus” given to couples who came to Chick-fil-A restaurants on Monday evenings during the month of August. The Date Night Menus covered topics such as communication, conflict resolution, personality differences, parenting, and finances. Each discussion outline encouraged couples to review their Couple Checkup results and respond to the discussion questions. 3. Marriage Champions: Mentor couples were trained and placed in each Chick-fil-A restaurant to welcome couples and support them if they had any questions or concerns about the Couple Checkup or Date Night experience. 4. Final Great Date Night Celebration: Couples were encouraged to come back for a special night of marriage enrichment and celebration, hosted by Christ Fellowship Church, and sponsored by Chick-fil-A. Almost 2000 people gathered for this free Great Date Night Celebration. Couples received a goody bag which included a copy of the book, 10 Great Dates to Energize Your Marriage, by David and Claudia Arp. 4
