The family is the primary social structure for the development and well-being of the new generation, as recently reinforced by the Covid-19 crisis, and parenting is a challenging task that requires support. Formal family support initiatives have been implemented across Europe to support parenting functions, with a large variability in provision both inter- and intra-country. There is need to integrate the implementation of family support evidence-based practices, proven to be effective models of professional practices, in systems of support provision across Europe.
To contribute to this challenge, QA[4]EuroFam will implement a quality assurance protocol in family support services in the participating countries through a self-directed assessment process to identify their strengths and challenges followed by an improvement plan. The implementation of a quality assurance protocol will produce an evidence-based and culturally-informed novel model for professional practice that requires the innovative articulation of the current evidence on quality standards for family support provision and evaluation with the complexity of the day-to-day professional practice.
