    Abstract

    Introduction. The current trends of the family institution in Ukraine are examined in the context of the state family policy.

    The purpose of the article is to analyze the trends of a modern family in Ukraine and to find ways to support it at the level of formation of the state family policy.

    Research results.

It is argued that the state family policy focused on working with dysfunctional families does not actually support well-functioning families.
