Nowadays, we are dealing with a large wave of emigration from Poland. Two factors contributed to this: the high unemployment rate in Poland at the turn of the last centuries and the ease of movement of individuals and groups after Poland's accession to the European Union. The overlap of these two factors meant that many Poles, not infrequently fathers or mothers of families, made decisions about finding a job outside the borders of their homeland. Although economic emigration contributes to improving the conditions of the family's existence, which is undoubtedly its positive effect, it nevertheless has many negative consequences: social, environmental, psychological... If emigration disturbs the system of family functioning, there is a need for broadly understood support of the emigrants' families in order to minimize its negative effects. It is primarily about support that maintains social relations that take a specific form in the family and without which the family becomes dysfunctional. The most important entities that provide such support are: the closest family, state institutions, religious organizations.
