Families Foundation Expat Parent Study - Every year families move to The Netherlands due to work opportunities. Leaving your home country and settling in The Netherlands can present challenges for every member of your family. We would like to know more about your experience as an expat parent. What is important for adapting to a new country as a family? What is your experience with raising children abroad? The Families Foundation, along with a Master's student at Leiden University are looking to understand the needs of expat families. They invite you to participate in their research by filling out a short questionnaire. The survey is anonymous and should take 5-8 minutes to complete. Your contribution will provide meaningful guidance for expat families living in The Netherlands.
