We will present the findings of two studies that examined the influence of relationship education on satisfaction and individual distress for low-income married couples. The first study included 110 couples who completed treatment and took assessments at pre, post, and follow-up. The second study included 54 couples randomly assigned to the treatment or wait-list control group. We will (a) discuss the results of each study; (b) present challenges, limitations, and implications; and (c) identify practical applications of relationship education to counseling and supervision.
