 Two
programs use the RAM-- the first is the
PICK a Partner
Program, a.k.a.
How To Avoid Falling for a Jerk(ette) which teaches a way to build a healthy
relationship that keeps the head and heart working together. This
program is designed to provide singles and singles-again of all ages with a plan for pacing a
relationship and exploring the key areas that foreshadow what
that partner will be like in marriage.

The
Marriage LINKS Program teaches
couples how to be active relationship managers and work together
to keep their relationship strong and resilient. This program also uses
the RAM to help couples visualize their feelings of closeness and
intimacy. It provides a format for you to monthly review your
relationship and make sure that you are balancing your time,
communication and togetherness in mutually enjoyable ways.
Check out the Pre- and Post-Deployment
versions of the LINKS program with pre or post LINKS workbooks for military couples.
