Summary/Abstract: The article presents an example of achieving the objectives of the current medium-term development strategy of the country. The activities mentioned in the article concern developing standards of social assistance's services. It is assumed that high quality services are going to be guaranteed by the implementation of standards of their execution as well as by application of the model of work and service's organization in units of social assistance (i.e. county family support centers). The medium-term development strategy of the country assumes that public services should be an answer to the opinions and needs of local community. A helpful tool in this process is the knowledge that comes from monitoring and evaluation of public services. Furthermore, the strategy assumes taking actions that are going to increase the efficiency of social services.
