"By collaborating with local service providers such as the Marriage Resource Center, MFS serves families from all communities, ethnicities, and religious backgrounds. Last year, the MRC trained MFS staff in some of the best programs for families such as PREP (Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program) and Smart Steps for Stepfamilies. MRC and MFS collaborated to provide marital education for engaged and married couples who were part of an underserved and minority community."
Dr. Ali Suleiman Ali, Director, Muslim Family Services

"Last year, FYI collaborated with the Marriage Resource Center (MRC) to provide American Muslims with culturally sensitive educational presentations on how to strengthen their marriages. The program served to increase awareness of the need for marital education,  provided young couples with practical skills to improve their relationship, and resources for follow up. The response from participants was overwhelming and many couples who had been struggling in their marriages reported that this program helped to strengthen and preserve their relationships."
Sameera Ahmed, Ph.D. Director, The Family & Youth Institute

"The MRC provided members of MAS Youth Detroit with free educational training in Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program (PREP) as well as Smart Marriages for Stepfamilies in order to assist MAS Youth workers with skills needed to serve young people."
