The Education On How to Run a Family Was Removed From Schools
A well-run home is the foundation of a well-functioning society. The education was removed. The expectation remained. Create Family Institute restores it.
FAMILY STRENGTH ASSESSMENT · TEN COURSES · ONE COMPLETE FAMILY OPERATING SYSTEM
THE COST
A well-run home is the foundation of a well-functioning society.
When the home has no direction, daily life runs the family instead of the other way around. Stress builds. Sleep suffers. The relationship strains. Work suffers next. Financial pressure follows. And the pressure that started at home comes back home heavier than it left.
Most families are not struggling because they are not trying. They are struggling because no one ever taught them how to run a home.
Every point on that cycle traces back to the same origin. Families were never given the foundational education to run a household, align as partners, and guide their children with intention. The expectation that they would figure it out never went away. The education that would have made it possible did.
The 2025 American Family Survey found that more than 70% of Americans now believe raising a family is unaffordable. The US Surgeon General identified worsening parental stress as a critical public health issue. According to KPMG's 2024 workforce data, 1.3 million workers missed work or reduced their hours in a single month due to family and household pressures. These are not isolated statistics. They are points on the same cycle.
That is the problem Create Family Institute was built to solve. Not with advice. With education.
THE MISSING EDUCATION
The education was removed.
The expectation remained.
How to define family direction
Where the family is going and how daily decisions reflect that destination
How to build parent alignment
How two parents establish shared standards, expectations, and a joint operating position
How to run a household
The systems, rhythms, and responsibilities that keep a home operating consistently
How to operate as a family team
How every member contributes to a shared plan and a shared purpose
How to raise a capable adult
What a successfully raised child looks like at each stage and what closes the gaps
How to guide rather than react
A defined approach to expectations, follow-through, and consistency inside the home
THE SYSTEM
Three steps. Ten plans.
One complete family operating system.
The assessment identifies where the education is missing. Each course produces one written plan.
Ten plans together become the complete operating system for the home.
01
The Assessment
The Family Strength Assessment measures a household across ten categories and identifies where the foundational education is missing. Results determine the starting point and route each family to the course where they will have the most immediate impact.
Free — 60 Questions — 10 Categories
02
The Courses
Each course follows a three-step method. Envision what the area looks like when it works. Map the current state. Build the plan that closes the gap. One course is released each month giving families the time to work through each subject completely before moving to the next.
10 Courses — One Per Month
03
The Plans
Ten courses produce ten written plans. Each plan is specific to the family and designed to be implemented as the curriculum progresses. The ten plans together become the complete operating system for the home.
Ten Plans — One Complete System
THREE CHANNELS
How We Bring Create Family Institute to Families
Each channel serves a different entry point.
The family is always the end result.
Families
Parents subscribe directly to access the full CFI curriculum. Take the assessment, get routed to the right starting course, and build a complete family operating system one plan at a time.
Enterprise
Companies deploy CFI as an employee benefit. Family friction at home follows employees to work. Per-seat subscription pricing scales by organization size. Pilot framework available.
Groups
Schools, churches, and nonprofits bring CFI to their parent communities. Activate the program once and earn recurring monthly revenue for as long as parents remain enrolled.
THE FOUNDER
⎯⎯⎯
Sunny Jensen
Founder — Create Family Institute
For over 25 years Sunny Jensen has worked with families across the United States, Australia, and South Africa. She directed a private school through full WASC accreditation and has delivered programs to military communities and public audiences across three countries.
Create Family Institute was built from one question Sunny asked as a new classroom teacher: Why do I have so many families struggling, where did Home Economics go? The answer became this institution.
