Task groups have been set up to develop their plans and produce reports by the end of this month.
The framework, due to be published in the autumn, aims to support families from pre-conception through pregnancy, birth and their child's eighth birthday.
Key considerations include early intervention and the needs of children requiring additional support, as well as developing an approach to support disadvantaged families that integrates with the government's framework to tackle poverty, inequality and deprivation.
The task groups are looking at four main areas: building parenting and family capacity before and after birth; creating communities that provide a supportive environment for children and families; delivering integrated services that meet the holistic needs of children and families; and developing a suitable workforce to support the framework.
