Another last chance opportunity is the Twogether in Texas class. The healthy marriage initiative in Texas (Twogether in Texas) promotes free, skills-based marriage education and provides couples with the tools they need to manage the challenges inherent to relationships.

Classes will benefit couples who are seriously dating, engaged to marry and those married for any length of time. Non-married couples will receive a certificate of completion that is good for one year and serves as proof that the couple is eligible for the discounted marriage license fee. The Little Elm library at 100 W. Eldorado Parkway, will be hosting the class on August 1, from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. To call for details and to register for the classes please pre-register with Sharp Focus Centers at 1-940-381-5010.
