Families: Nebraska's Future - University of Nebraska Cooperative Extension in Lancaster and Saunders Counties

NU for Families

Research at the University of Nebraska has focused on families who believe they are doing well. Information has been gathered through in-depth family interviews, observations and written questionnaires. Family members from all 50 states and 27 countries have participated.

Amazingly when you ask people around the globe, "What makes your family strong?" the answers are remarkably similar from culture to culture. Strong families have six general qualities:

  • Appreciation and Affection
  • Positive Communication
  • Commitment
  • Enjoyable Time Together
  • Successful Management of Stress and Crises
  • Spiritual Well-Being
