Article Submission Guidelines for The CHADIE Foundation

Founded in 2022, The CHADIE Foundation publishes articles dedicated to helping children and spouses negatively impacted by adultery and infidelity. The publication expands and supports responsible parenting with a straightforward presentation of research, studies, and real-world examples of fidelity and integrity in marriage. In the pages of our publication, writers share experiences, expertise, struggles, advice, successes, and suggestions.

Our editors are interested in articles on concrete topics written by emerging and experienced writers in marriage, infidelity, adultery, and divorce. We are looking for a clear takeaway for our readers.

In addition to the article submission, all submissions should include a word count, a summary of the article, key takeaways from the article, and a brief description of your background.

We are not interested in pieces that have been previously published online or in print. For personal articles, we prefer writers to attach or paste the finished piece in their query email.

Queries and articles should be sent by e-mail to support@chadie.org. All queries sent to any other address will be deleted. Please include your name and a short bio.

Please feel free to send us simultaneous submissions. Unfortunately, we receive many pitches every week and cannot respond to all of them. If you’re unfamiliar with our magazine, we recommend reading a few articles, subscribing, or signing up for our newsletter to get a feel for the kind of work we publish.

Article lengths vary widely from 300 to 800 words. On occasion, longer articles and excerpts also appear in our publication.

We recommend writers ask themselves the following questions before submitting. It isn’t necessary to include them in your submission, but we find it’s a good way to help us understand how your piece best fits in our publication:

  • How specifically will this article idea help our readers become more informed about it? What takeaway will it provide?
  • Why is this particular idea timely or relevant?
  • Why are you the right person to write this piece?
  • What kind of sidebars or other creative elements can you include to make your article or idea more important and actionable?

The CHADIE Foundation is a non-profit organization and does not pay writers for their articles or for publishing them. We expect to receive a high volume of submissions each day. We strive to provide quick turnaround times, with most articles reviewed or published within 2–4 days of submission. New authors should expect somewhat longer turnaround times.

Recovering from Infidelity

If you have experienced infidelity-induced trauma caused by the emotional and sexual betrayal of your spouse, there is hope! If you are a child affected by parental infidelity, there is hope! If you are a spouse who has betrayed the trust, love, and fidelity of your marriage, there is hope! We recommend that you seek support through professional counseling and therapy as well as through groups dedicated to supporting you through this traumatic journey to recovery. You are not alone and recovery and healing are possible!
