Initial responses predominantly focused on slowing the spread of the virus and included movement restrictions, intra-country and inter-country border closings, quarantine, isolation, social distancing, and mask wearing.

Out-of-home care, especially treatment residential care programs (TRC) are often described in the media, and even in some professional studies, as obsolete social structures (Consensus Statement, 2014).

Pandemia COVID-19 solicită adaptarea și / sau dezvoltarea de servicii și programe pentru a continua să servim cel mai bine copiii și familiile lor în timpul acestei perioade rapid schimbătoare. Perturbările care afectează familiile, prieteniile, rutina zilnică și comunitatea în general pot avea consecințe negative asupra bunăstării copiilor, educației, dezvoltării și protecției lor.

Pandemia COVID-19 ne cere să evaluăm cum adaptăm mai bine serviciile și programele existente sau creăm altele noi ca să servim mai bine copiii și familiile în astfel de situații incerte. O socio-eco mapă (vedeți imaginea de mai jos) ne-ar putea ajuta să înțelegem cum COVID-19 poate afecta copiii, familiile și comunitățile pe care ne propunem să le deservim. Această mapă, de asemenea, ajută programelor la adaptare, reorganizare și determinarea priorității activităților de prevenire și răspuns.
