Summary/Abstract: According the research the family is the highest value in the Poles and the Slovaks. The surveys show that the opinions of Poles and Slovaks about the family are very similar. Nowadays the family policy is becoming one of the most key areas of social policy in the Central European countries. In Slovakia, family policy has been implemented consistently and generously for many years as a result of a multi-party agreement. In Poland, after many years of dismantling the welfare state, there has been a radical socio-political turn by initiating active pro-family policy.
