Do you think strong families are connected with the others in community?
Community and family ties
Strong families draw on other people and institutions for support. If they have a hard time dealing with a problem, they are willing to seek outside help. Strong families also tend to be closely involved with the schools, and local organizations that promote the well-being of the community and the individual.
No family is an island. Strong families stay in touch with friends and relatives, are friendly with neighbours, and are willing to help others in time of need. They also admit problems and are willing to reach out to professionals and other for help.
Strong families are connected to others in the community. They don't stand alone. You will find such families closely involved with extended families and friends, schools, churches, and local organizations that promote the well-being of individuals and communities. Parents support groups that help develop and educate their children.

Family Ties
Yes, I believe in family ties
That flourish strong and pure,
That thrive in fond togetherness,
That help and mend and cure.
I cherish so the gatherings
That come with holidays,
The special times before the meals
When voices blend in praise.
And I believe in family fun.
In picnics, hikes and ball,
In barbecues in summertime
And lamb when roasted in fall.
Yes, I believe in fellowship
Because I realize
That keys to peace and happiness
Are found in family ties.
