Social protection of young families as a factor of trust in the state: sociological view by K. A. Aramyan, V. V. Krivopuskov, D. R. Kaberova

“…These factors dictate the need to adjust the package of social protection (support) measures for families with consideration to their real requests: strengthening the economic component (reduction of bureaucratic barriers, tax burden, support for small and medium-sized enterprises and firms that are led, as a rule, by representatives of young married couples); organising a network of centres for specialised psychological assistance to pregnant women and their husbands, then psychological and pedagogical accompaniment of parents; targeting information state policy (with an emphasis on the parental channel), as well as through programmes of educational shifts of youth camps (formation of knowledge among young generations of Russians even before marriage about the state policy of family protection (support), social trust and confidence in their well-being in the future).
