Abstract
This chapter examines the effects of social networks on marital stability among Black American and White American couples, using data from the Early Years of Marriage Project. The authors highlight how support from the broader social network, especially from family and religious organizations, plays a role in marital stability, and how this role can differ for Black American and White American couples.
