Family Strengths Perspective

The Family Strengths Perspective is a way of viewing families that focuses on their capabilities, resources, and positive qualities rather than problems. It emphasizes recognizing and building on what families do well, such as their support networks, resilience, and problem-solving skills. This approach encourages empowering families by highlighting their strengths, fostering confidence, and helping them navigate challenges more effectively. Instead of just addressing issues, it promotes a hopeful and collaborative attitude, viewing families as capable and resourceful, which can lead to better outcomes and growth.
