It’s never too late to bring hope to your marriage and harmony to your
home! The path to restoring your marriage begins with the simple step
of just asking for help. Many other couples have walked the path of
healing their marriages and there can be hope and healing for you as
well! The project directors for the New Mexico Marriages First Project,
Michael and Rebecca Holland, understand the struggles of putting a
marriage back together, as they almost divorced in 1990.
Where marital issues arise, whether in the form of arguments,
infidelities, verbal or even physical abuse, there are huge impacts on
children and other dependents. Children of divorced parents are twice
as likely to drop out of school, three times as apt to have a baby out
of wedlock and twelve times as likely to be incarcerated as those from
intact homes. In addition, divorce doubles the likelihood that you and
your children will live in poverty. If you want help to try and heal
your marriage, the New Mexico Marriages First Project is here for you.
We will work with you to determine if there is a way to save your
marriage. The good news is that for couples who want to work on their
marriages and not divorce, there are specific skills that we can help
you learn that will enhance your marriage and help you get on the path
to healing.
