This section defines "family resource and support programs" as community-based services that help families over time. These programs build parenting skills, connect families to other resources, and create support networks that reduce isolation.

In this part of the law, "family resource and support programs" means community-based services that give ongoing help to families at different stages of family life. These services must build good parenting behavior and healthy family development in three ways: (1) helping build family skills and improving parents' ability to be supportive and nurturing; (2) helping families use other formal and informal resources and opportunities available in their communities; and (3) creating support networks that strengthen parents' ability to raise children and help offset the isolation and vulnerability many families face.
