| Sumario: | This article analyses the philosophical assumptions embedded in the notions of family, as well as in the way the State's relationship with the family is conceptualised, in three social programmes for family support in Uruguay (Centros de Atención a la Infancia y la Família [CAIF], Uruguay Crece Contigo and Cercanías). Using a qualitative research design, the reconstruction of their normative assumptions was carried out through documentary analysis and semi‐structured interviews with different actors. It is argued that the philosophical–political perspective present in the three programmes can be linked to egalitarian liberal feminism, thereby showing a certain shift from the traditional way in which a liberal State has related to the family.
