This is indicated by the general formulated directions of actions as well as the proposals of particular actions. Because the biggest number of instruments which may be used to support the families’ decision about procreation are found within the scope of family policy, this area of social policy has been selected as the object of analysis. This article presents the selected proposals of the electoral offer concerned with the solutions in the framework of family policy of those parties which during parliamentary elections 2015 in Poland, registered the lists of candidates for Sejm in at least half of electoral constituencies. The aim of the author is not only identify the vision of family policy and the directions of its development presented by given parties, but above all to try to indicate the main separation lines. Detailed analysis of the proposals, mainly from electoral programs, allowed also to mark off those areas and solutions around which political consensus can be created, as they were a part of electoral programs of almost all groups.
