Abstract
This study examines the impact of the Family Education Guidance (FEG) programme, which was designed to improve family functioning in urban low-income families in China.120 families were chosen at random for a one-year intervention, and another 120 families served as the control group. After the intervention, the results demonstrated that the family functioning by parents and children were significantly improved in the experimental group. This illustrated that the FEG programme is effective in improving family functioning in low-income families and could be used to train social workers and improve the situation of low-income families in the future.
