RELATIONSHIPS Closing one door and opening another

Submitted By Joneen Mackenzie

Our team at the Center for Relationship Education (CRE) was saddened to learn we would be vacating our office space after 15 years at Marina Square in Denver. Shea Properties informed us that they were planning to redevelop the complex, and the hunt began for our company's new home. The Center for Relationship Education is a curriculum and certification company that instructs educators, counselors, clergy, therapists, and other professional community leaders to utilize its proprietary REAL Essentials relationship skills training curricula. We are living in an increasingly disconnected world, and social isolation continues to increase among both children and adults. CRE is committed to providing a proactive, root cause solution to teenage relationships as a priority with engaging, life-changing learning.

Since its founding in 2003, the Center has grown exponentially in its offerings and impact. The organization was established on the belief that all individuals regardless of age, or life experience, can experience healthy thriving relationships, which are essential to health, happiness, and life success.

The vision of the Center is that individuals of all ages will experience positive relationships that are thriving. The REAL Essentials curriculum addresses the human need and longing for acceptance, love, belonging, respect, dignity and to be known and connected to others in healthy ways. We have had our non-profit headquarters in Marina Square since 2004. During this tenure,

CRE has expanded its reach to 47 states, training thousands to prioritize and protect the health of their relational well-being.

Not only is CRE moving in our mission, we are also moving our office location. Thanks to the amazing assistance from Newmark realtor, Ben Klemish and new landlord with Kelmore Devel- opment Company. Mr. Bob Koontz and Donald Siecke, principals of Kelmore Development, the CRE team has set up its new home.

On June 5, the Center for Relationship celebrated our new office space with a Grand Opening Welcome. If you missed it, it’s not too late to come visit. You can find The Center for Relationship Education at 7939 E Arapahoe

Rd, #285 Greenwood Village, CO 80112. Our doors are right to the right of Pindustry in Greenwood Village.

Many colleagues, friends and well-wishers joined us with festive food, beverages and décor. Please stop in and meet us. We would love to get to know you and develop a relationship. joneen@myrelation shipcenter.org
