In order to implement this strategy, the EUROsociAL+ Program of the European Union provided technical advice, experiences, good practices and knowledge applied in similar implementations at European level. This document is the product aimed at professionals who work at the Family Meeting Point, which provides them with techniques on how to establish an intervention plan with families.
