Pre-Adoption/Pre-Foster Care

Prepare couples to adopt or foster. Assess expectations and satisfaction in 12 relationship categories and gain insights into relationship dynamics, stress, personality, and family systems.

 

Prepare is designed for couples who are on the brink of marriage.

 

It's a valuable opportunity for you to explore more about yourself, your partner, and your relationship. This program helps uncover the strengths you share while also highlighting areas where you can grow together.

 

Keep in mind that the results of Prepare are not about predicting success or failure in marriage, nor do they decide if you should tie the knot. Think of it not as a test, but as a chance to reflect; there are no right or wrong answers. Your honesty is key to making the most of this experience.

 

Your results will be kept completely confidential, seen only by you, your partner, and your coach. To maintain privacy, you’ll be assigned a couple identification number instead of using your names.

 

As you take the inventory, we ask that you refrain from discussing your responses with each other. Once you’ve both completed the assessment, it’s important to share your thoughts and feelings about the process.
