FOCUS ON FAMILIES
Our focus is on families who are responsible for raising children.
These families consist of at least one adult and one child who are related biologically, emotionally, or legally.
Families may consist of one parent, two parents, grandparents, foster parents, legal guardians or they may arise from a need for mutual support.

18
PRINCIPLES OF FAMILY SUPPORT

22
5 SECTIONS OF THE STANDARDS
23
Family Centeredness
24
Program encourages families to participate in program development and implementation
Family Strengthening
Program recognizes families as significant resources for their own family members and each other
25
Embracing Diversity
Program acknowledges and respects the diversity of families, including their cultural traditions, languages, values, socioeconomic status, family structures, sexual orientation, religion, individual abilities, and other aspects
26
Community Building

27
STRUCTURE OF THE STANDARDS
Standards 17 Standards
Indicators Each Standard includes 1-2 sets of Indicators of both Minimum Quality and High Quality.
The Minimum Quality Indictors demonstrate the basic application of the Standard.
Programs build upon the Minimum Quality Indicators to achieve the High Quality Indicators, which represent ongoing and deeper commitment to the application of the Standard.
28
STRUCTURE OF THE STANDARDS
Examples
Each Indicator is followed by 2-4 examples from the field that illustrate its application.
These examples are not meant to be an exhaustive list or a specific checklist.
As Programs apply the Standards, they are encouraged to identify their own examples that demonstrate the Indicators in ways that are relevant to their communities.

• Staff Self-Reflection Checklist – consists of 15 self-reflection questions
for staff members to use as a daily reminder to implement the Standards.• Standards Participant Survey – consists of 14
questions for Program participants to indicate how well a Program is meeting the Standards from the families’ perspective. Available in English, Spanish, and Chinese.
33
