The Third Option

Beginning Again, Married Couples Find the Joy They'd All But Forgotten

 

‘We’ve learned that a good marriage takes commitment and work, and we’re finding the joy together that we had all but forgotten’, is what one participant of The Third Option says.  The Third Option is a program that teaches couples new ways to build the kind of marriage they always wanted to have.  All marriages have good times and some bad times. Don't let small issues develop into large ones. The group will meet every other Sunday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.. The group is free and open to the public. Sessions will take place at The Good News Center, 10475 Cosby Manor Road, Utica.The Third Option is an on-going group program to build better marriages. It is designed for all married couples and can be used both as marriage enrichment or crisis intervention.  

 

This program teaches skills needed to have happier, healthier marriages. Mentor couples, who themselves have struggled in thier relationships, in a warm and caring atmosphere welcome couples or those who come individually.
