Strengthening Families Framework

The Strengthening Families Framework is a research-based approach that focuses on fostering five key protective factors to enhance family resilience and child well-being. These factors include parental resilience, social connections, knowledge of child development, concrete support in times of need, and social and emotional competence of children. By nurturing these areas, families can better manage challenges, support healthy development, and build stronger relationships. The framework emphasizes collaboration among families, communities, and service providers to create supportive environments that promote positive outcomes for children and ensure families can thrive.
