The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a family life education program for children of institutionalized single-mother famines. Based on the strong family perspective and empirical research in this field, the program was developed to enhance children's self-esteem and social ability, and to help children accept diverse family patterns. The program consists of four 60-minute sessions. Ten children and their mothers in two institutions for single-mother families participated in this program. The results of program evaluation revealed that this program was helpful for promoting children's personality development and strengthening their family life of institutionalized single-mother famines. Conclusions and implications are discussed.
