The purpose of the Pre-Marriage Counseling is to help couples develop a deeper understanding of their future roles and responsibilities as husband and wife. It serves as a preventive and developmental approach to strengthen the foundation of marriage by addressing important aspects such as communication, conflict resolution, decision-making, family planning, and financial management. This ensures that couples enter married life with mutual awareness, shared expectations, and stronger emotional and psychological preparedness. Through this initiative, the MSWDO-Ipil aims to support couples in building stable and healthy families, ultimately contributing to the overall well-being of the community.
