This is in line with the leadership’s directions, and part of the Emirate's aspirations for the next 50 years.

The goals set by the Family Care Authority includes providing a single point of contact for integrated services, developing and updating a database for all beneficiaries of family care programmes, and upgrading family care services provided to the beneficiaries.

Other goals include supporting social entities in achieving their goals through coordination, case management, providing the necessary data, and providing family care services of the highest quality to the Abu Dhabi community, and in accordance with the policies and regulations adopted in the Emirate.

The authority is also keen on improving the approved family care model to include the level of operational coordination and providing services to the beneficiaries.

Its target groups include individuals, citizens and residents of the UAE, including families, women, children, the elderly, youth, men, people who have suffered from societal problems, and people of determination.

According to authorities, a set of direct services will be provided based on the specific needs of the beneficiaries, or in coordination and partnership with other entities working in the social sector, to provide targeted services based on the integrated case management model.
