Resolution for Healthy Family Formation

Texas should support premarital education to strengthen marriages and give a discount on marriage licenses for couples that complete premarital education.  Texas should restore the “Healthy Marriage Development Program” that was defunded in 2011.  Federal funding, including Title V and TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families), should not violate Texas laws which includes prohibiting abortion providers or affiliates.  Title V and TANF Federal funding should be used for risk avoidance education, premarital education, Fatherhood programs, reconciliation education, and divorce education.
