Through Alienu’s programs,
All survey responses will be directly sent to OTX Research, an independent survey company. The survey is confidential and will only take you a few minutes to complete.
We all know that in order to make this survey statistically valid, we need to have as much participation as possible and your assistance is critical. Let’s work together as a community to use research as a way to improve marriages and family relationships.
We look forward to presenting the research to the community on Shabbat of Awareness, March 15, and to developing further programs to address the issues.
