February 7-14

Use National Marriage Week USA (Feb. 7-14) to get local media, promote your event, and help marriages!
You can strengthen marriages in your community, reduce divorce and cohabitation, and serve the needs of children, by joining with others to participate in National Marriage Week USA -- February 7 to 14th -- the week leading up to Valentine's Day.
Our Goals:
1) mobilize thousands of marriage classes, home groups and events across the nation, posted all on one national calendar; and
2) promote the benefits of marriage through the media and public policy makers in your community.
Simple Steps 1, 2, 3
1. Use our NEW, free TOOL KIT (sample press release, etc.) to spread the positive message about the benefits of marriage and publicize your own event! Tool Kit includes Suggested Curricula, Webinars, Logos, Sample Press Releases, Mayor/Governor Proclamation, Newspaper Ads, Research, PSAs, downloadable Brochures, Marriage Tips, and more.

2. Plan to HOST a marriage class, home group, Sunday school class, or DATE NIGHT CHALLENGE EVENT during the week leading up to Valentine's Day. NEW this year -- a 2-hour webcast with Dr. Greg Smalley and Comedian Jeff Allen called "Date Night Challenge." Or, of course, use any trusted marriage curricula, DVD, or workbook of your choosing -- our website lists many trusted existing options.
