The Family Affairs Committee of the Sharjah Consultative Council (SCC) held a meeting in Sharjah on Tuesday to discuss new ideas and plans aimed at strengthening families in the community.

This meeting was part of their ongoing efforts to support families and improve social welfare, in line with the goals set by His Highness Dr Sheikh Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, and Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher Bint Mohammed Al Qasimi, Wife of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah.

The discussion included various members of the committee and was focused on important family-related topics.

They expressed a strong commitment to visiting several organisations that work with women, children, and the elderly.

These visits are meant to examine the services offered, recognise any challenges, and suggest solutions to enhance support for these groups.

The committee also explored ideas to promote family unity and extend psychological and social support to different sections of society, including efforts to care for children, empower women, and assist senior citizens.

Members noted that the meeting was part of their responsibility to address family issues and encourage community participation while reinforcing the values of solidarity and family strength.
