Case Study: OurRelationship improves low-income couples’ relationship support with Totara Learn

OurRelationship's Totara Learn supports low-income couples in their relationships

OurRelationship is a free online marriage and relationship program run by Dr. Brian Doss at the University of Miami. It needed Totara Learn to deliver its 7–8 hour web-based course in a user-friendly way across smartphones, tablets, and computers, while also supporting tailored coaching and research needs for couples working through unique relationship challenges.

Totara Learn enabled personalized feedback, saved assessment responses for later use, and linked each couple’s accounts so they could complete parts of the program separately and then join a shared conversation. In a randomized controlled trial of 300 couples, participants showed statistically significant improvements in relationship quality and reductions in depression and anxiety, helping OurRelationship secure a five-year federal contract to reach about 2,500 low-income couples nationwide.
