Building a prosperous, progressive, happy and civilized family
Family is the home of each person, the cell of society. During his lifetime, President Ho Chi Minh always cared about the role and position of the family. He affirmed: “Caring about the family is right because many families together make up a society, good families make good society, good society makes better families, the nucleus of society is the family…”.
Recognizing the important role of family and fostering family values, in recent years, the Party and State have proposed many policies and strategies to build families, preserve and promote the fine traditional values of Vietnamese families.

At the 13th National Congress, our Party affirmed the policy: "Building a prosperous, progressive, happy and civilized family"; this is also one of the three key tasks set forth by the 13th National Women's Congress, term 2022 - 2027.

The 16th Congress of Women's Delegates of Nghe An province also identified "supporting women to develop, integrate and foster the good values of Vietnamese families" as one of the three key tasks of the Women's Union at all levels in the province during the 2021-2026 term. Therefore, in recent times, Women's Unions at all levels in the province have promoted their responsibility in supporting women to develop comprehensively, building prosperous, happy, progressive and civilized Vietnamese families.
The focus is on propaganda, traditional education, raising people's awareness of the good values of Vietnamese families; building models of "Family of 5 no, 3 clean - 5 yes, 3 clean"; model of "Trusted address in the community", Club“building happy families”… Thereby, providing and sharing information and skills on child care, raising children, economic development, and building happy families for cadres and members.

Activities of counseling, supporting marriage and family, building safety models for women and children are focused on implementation at the grassroots level, contributing to protecting women and children from violence, promptly encouraging them mentally, guiding women in knowledge and skills to prevent and combat domestic violence... contributing to reducing domestic violence, stabilizing security and social order.
Associations at all levels in the province also actively propagate and mobilize resources to support members and women in economic development and escape poverty.
Up to now, the whole province has 7,926 member families meeting 8 criteria of "5 no, 3 clean - 5 yes, 3 clean" and 560 "Happy Family" Clubs.

At each stage of the country's development, the family always plays the role of the foundation, the cell of society, the first and key environment in forming, educating, and nurturing the personality and qualities of each person, contributing significantly to improving the quality of the population and developing the country's human resources.
Women are “workers, citizens, mothers, and the first teachers of mankind”, making important contributions to the process of building a prosperous, happy, progressive, and civilized family. Therefore, all levels of the provincial association continue to set requirements for innovation and diversification of forms and contents of activities to raise awareness among members, women, and the community about family values, and join hands to build a happy, progressive family.
