Family-Centered Approach

A Family-Centered Approach is a way of providing services—such as healthcare, education, or social support—that actively involves and respects the entire family. It recognizes the family's important role in a person’s well-being and encourages their participation in decision-making and planning. This approach promotes open communication, values family strengths, and collaborates with families to create supportive environments tailored to their needs, ultimately leading to better outcomes for individuals and their families.
