Although Zambia’s economy has consistently been growing in the last 5 years, the quality of life of many families has commensurately not improved. Evidently, this growth is uneven and has not filtered down to the poorest segments of the Zambian society. This chapter argues that Zambia needs to develop a family policy in order to strengthen families. As the country has never had a family policy since independence, the chapter also contends that a family policy in Zambia would help to sharpen state-driven interventions and co-ordinate other sectors’ initiatives aimed at poverty reduction, towards the goal of strengthening families. The chapter concludes with policy proposals.
