PAX Programs Incorporated was founded by Alison Armstrong & Joan McClain in 1995. We are mission-driven & in the business of educating men & women about the predicament of gender, the interaction of masculinity & femininity, & the principles of the paradigm of Partnership. PAX (the Latin word for "peace" and an acronym for Partnership, Adoration & Xtasy) creates peace between the sexes by providing unique & immediately useful information & a transformation in how we see ourselves & each other.

Our flagship program, Understanding Men (formerly The Queen's Code/Celebrating Men, Satisfying Women®), is an online educational program to transform the way both women & men relate to men. It facilitates the reconciliation many people are seeking with men and outlines the skills necessary to realize powerful, satisfying relationships with all men. To date, tens of thousands of women and men, age 17 to 83, have completed Understanding Men and a majority of them have attended advanced courses.
