Abstract
The article examines the situation of large families in the Russian Federation. The analysis of the structure of large families by federal districts has been carried out, the main motives for the birth of the second and third children have been identified, and socio-economic factors affecting the level of large families have been considered. Special attention is paid to government support measures aimed at increasing the birth rate and improving the living conditions of large families. The results of the study allow us to conclude that an integrated approach to family policy is necessary for the sustainable development of Russian society.
