Work for the development of the community - JSS1 Social studies Lesson Note
The family is a fundamental social institution, serving as the primary social group where individuals learn values, norms, and cultural practices. It plays a crucial role in various aspects, contributing significantly to community development, population growth, and political, social, and economic progress.
One of the primary functions of a family is to work for the development of the community. Families act as microcosms of society, and their collective efforts influence the overall well-being of the community. Through education, employment, and community engagement, families contribute to the development of social capital, which is essential for building a strong and vibrant community.
