Abstract
With increasing family diversity, both culturally and structurally, healthy familial relationships continue to hold great importance nationwide. Within this context, relationship education programming can be administered and prioritized at the state-level. This article explores the history of the Utah Marriage Commission, the Healthy Relationships Utah initiative, and the current state of relationship education in Utah. Our article provides a profile of Utah’s families and a review of national policies that provide support for Utah’s relationship education efforts. We also discuss important lessons learned in Utah resulting from 20 years of state commission implementation and the provision of a comprehensive, statewide relationship education initiative. Our profile can serve as a case study for other states planning similar initiatives aimed at improving the quality of life of individuals and families.
