In the version of the OurRelationship® program for couples, you and your partner will work together on online activities to solve relationship problems. You can complete these activities on your schedule using your phone, computer, or tablet. You’ll also have five 20‐minute calls with a program coach – calls can be scheduled during the day, evenings, or weekends.
The free program is funded by a grant from the US Administration for Children and Families and designed to support couples nationwide.
If you qualify for the free program, you’ll have regular calls with a program coach – daytime, evening, and weekend times are available. We’ll also send you gift cards to Amazon, Walmart, or Target worth $150 per couple for completing the program and filling out online surveys.
Additionally, if you are part of our research study, you’ll earn $300-$450 per couple in gift cards for filling out online surveys during and after the program. Fifty percent of couples in the research study start the program immediately and fifty percent of couples are asked to wait six months before starting the program. For more information, click here.
You’ll find out if you qualify for the free program immediately after completing the survey.

You may be thinking, “This program sounds good, but how do I know it really works?” Good question! There are many online programs that promise incredible results, so what makes our program different?
The first step is to see if you’re eligible for the free program. If not, you’ll also decide whether to do the program with or without a coach. After that, you’ll need to create an account to access our online material.
Once you’re registered, you can begin to explore the program(s) available to you. If you are signed up for the free program, or the paid program with a relationship coach, you’ll be able to schedule your first coaching session when you register.
As you go through the program, you will have lessons to complete on your own. After you’ve finished a section, you and your partner will come together to talk about what you’ve learned. If you’re working with your coach, you’ll have four more 20-minute calls (usually about one per week). The coach will help you apply the online content to your own relationship.
Our programs can deliver real results, but it won’t happen overnight. Generally, these programs take between 8-10 hours to complete over the course of 5-8 weeks. Throughout the program, we will teach you new ways to communicate and identify changes to strengthen your relationship as a couple. We are confident that your relationship will improve after you and your partner have completed our program.
If you or your partner do not want to do online surveys required as part of the free program, you can choose to pay for the program
You have the option to join a fully self-guided version of the program for $79, or one that includes four sessions with a relationship coach for $199.
