CIVIC LANE
Türkiye's Family and Social Services Ministry said free family counselling is available across all 81 provinces through local services and the e-government system. The programme focuses on communication, problem solving and support before family conflicts become more severe. Easy access to counselling can affect relationships, child welfare and pressure on other public services. The policy debate is whether governments should expand preventive family support or leave more responsibility to private and community providers. The story offers a direct way to test which type of support people would actually use or prioritize.
