The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a restraint on the community and individual services market in 2020 as governments globally imposed lockdowns that restricted the gathering of people in public places such as schools, colleges, child care, and community centers.

The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and spread globally including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in a decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of 'lock down' and the outbreak had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021.

In India, ‘Pradhan Mantri Gramin Awaas Yojana’ focuses on providing pucca houses with basic amenities to homeless families. The objective of this scheme is to build one crore of homes of 25 sqm by 2022. The government of India also launched the Shelter for Homeless program under the National Urban Livelihood Mission (NULM). Under this program, various types of shelters such as men’s shelters, women’s shelters, family shelters, and special shelters (for old age, mentally ill, and sick persons) are provided. The government of India will finance 75% of the expense for the development of these shelters and the other 25% will be the State commitment. The Indian government is also working on providing rental housing to urban poor belonging to scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and other backward classes, migrants, transgender, and senior citizens. Therefore, different types of federal funding will help drive the market for community housing services. Re-entry services are increasingly being provided for the people exiting prison. A majority of this population face homelessness after their release and have nowhere to go. Therefore, many NGOs have come forward to help them provide shelter.

This individual and family services market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global individual and family services market size will grow from $874.51 billion in 2022 to $929.68 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global individual and family services market size is expected to grow to $1151.26 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 5.5%. The rise in abuse and neglect towards children and the elderly are expected to drive the individual and family services market. Children and the elderly are the most vulnerable individuals who are prone to abuse and neglect from their families, friends, institutions, and others. According to the World Health Organization in 2020, one in 6 people the age of 60 and above have experienced abuse. Moreover, according to the analysis published in the 29th Child Maltreatment Report by the Children’s Bureau at HHS' Administration for Children and Families (ACF), out of 3,534,000 million children, 60.8% of victims were neglected, 10.7% were physically abused, and 7.0% were sexually abused. More than 15% of children are victims of two or more types of maltreatment. The children and elderly abused and neglected mostly suffer from physical injuries, and emotional, and psychological problems, such as impaired social-emotional skills or anxiety. Children and the elderly who suffered abuse are at a higher risk of substance abuse due to emotional imbalance and this growing number increases the demand for individual and family services for non-residential social assistance services for improving living standards. Cases of abuse going unreported hamper the individual and family services market. Most of the abuse is unreported due to fear, lack of awareness, and not receiving a proper channel. According to the recent study published in the journal Child Abuse and Neglect, in 2020, 250,000 cases of children abuse or neglect may have gone unreported in U.S, due to COVID pandemic restrictions. As the cases are unreported individual and family services providers can’t assist the victims and most of the victims are left unaided, thereby hampering the growth of the individual and family services market. Individual and family services providers are utilizing the virtual means for organizing events or fundraising, creating awareness, and rendering services. Restrictions due to pandemics all over the world forced many organizations to turn towards using the online platform for rendering services. For instance, in October 2020, Fostering Hope Foundation, a US-based non-profit organization for foster services conducted a virtual fundraiser. Furthermore, in October 2020, The NYC Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) and The New York Academy of Medicine (NYAM) entered into a new partnership aimed at promoting health equity among older youth in foster care through the use of virtual programming. In September 2020, Day One, a US-based agency that focuses on providing substance use, mental health, and wellness services to youth and families merged with SMART Child & Family Services. This merger is initiated to provide outstanding services to Maine people grappling with substance use and mental health challenges, with an intensified focus on family-based care.

Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is a service model based on cloud computing that enables an organizations to back up their data and IT infrastructure to a third-party cloud environment and provide all DR orchestration through a SaaS solution to regain access and functionality of IT infrastructure after a disaster. The main service types of disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) are backup and recovery, real-time replication, and data protection. Real-time replication is the process of synchronizing data across a source and a destination database when a change occurs in the data source. The deployment models of disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) are premises-to-cloud and cloud-to-cloud. The various sizes of the enterprise are large enterprises and small & medium enterprises. The cloud used in disaster recovery as a service is public, private, and hybrid. The various types of applications are banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), government, it and telecom, media and entertainment, manufacturing and logistics, and education. The disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) market statistics, including disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) market share, detailed disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) industry. This disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global disaster recovery as a service (draas) market size will grow from $8.08 billion in 2022 to $11.07 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 37.1%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global disaster recovery as a service (draas) market size is expected to grow to $34.99 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 33.3%. The rise in need for backing up public and private data drives the growth of the disaster recovery as a service market. There is 2.5 quintillion bytes of data created every day and a major factor contributing to the loss of this data is unplanned downtime of systems which further results in the shutdown of various companies. The potential losses and damage due to the system downtimes are huge and hence there is a need for backup services. These backup services would insure companies of any unforeseen disasters and hence drive the growth of the DRaaS market. For instance, according to invenio IT study, less than 10% of the companies survive a disaster without a disaster recovery plan. These companies include not only small players in the market but also major players such as FedEx and Nissan, who require backup services for their survival. Many companies fear data breaches, as they are concerned about the company's sensitive information being compromised and hence show a lack of trust in data security when sourcing from a third party vendor. This lack of trust prevents people from adopting the DRaaS, which acts as a restraint for the DRaaS market. For instance, in March 2020, the hotel chain Marriott disclosed a security breach that impacted the data of more than 5.2 million hotel guests who used their company’s loyalty application. Due to rise in the number of cyber threats, companies started using AI and Machine Learning in DRaaS solutions to detect threats and unusual behavior in advance. There are predictive learning algorithms that are being developed to differentiate between real and false disaster recovery situations. These learning algorithms can automatically perform proactive recoveries, eliminating outages before they are detected. For example, Unitrends, a US-based company offers a variety of business continuity and backup services. The company has developed the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in its services which runs during every backup in order to identify backups that are affected by ransomware. Once data threats are identified, the company with the help of AI and new technologies immediately informs about the same making data more secure. In July 2020, VMware, Inc. an American cloud computing and virtualization technology, announced that it has acquired Datrium DRaaS, a leader in cloud-native disaster recovery, for undisclosed amount. This acquisition focuses on expanding the current VMware Site Recovery disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) offering with Datrium’s world-class cost-optimized DRaaS solution.

The global social assistance market grew from $1,639.3 billion in 2022 to $1,723.4 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, and affecting many markets across the globe. The market is expected to grow from $2,145.21 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 5.6%. An expected increase in the women’s employment rate in the forecast period is estimated to drive the market for child care. For instance, the share of women in the labor force in the USA is expected to increase by 47.2% in 2024, driving the demand for on-site childcare facilities at corporates. The rise of the on-site child care market is also highly supported by government initiatives to encourage women to work, which will directly contribute to the growth of the child care market in the forecast period, thereby driving the social assistance market. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a restraint on the social assistance market in 2020 as governments globally imposed lockdowns that restricted the gathering of people in public places such as schools, colleges, child care, and community centers. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and spread globally including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in a decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of 'lock down' and the outbreak had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, some of the social services markets remained relatively unaffected as the outbreak did not impact their operations. It is expected that the social assistance market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.

This child and youth services market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global child and youth services market size will grow from $140.29 billion in 2022 to $149.27 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global child and youth services market size is expected to grow to $185.36 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 5.6%. The benefits from community programs for children and youth contributed to the growth of the child and youth services market. According to youth.gov, young people surrounded by a variety of opportunities engage in less risky behavior when in adulthood. A study was conducted that for the first five years where youth are involved in the 4-H youth development program, they showed a lower risk of having social, and personal behavioral problems and four times more likely to contribute to the communities, and two times as likely to be civically active. These factors are expected to have a positive impact on the child and youth services market’s growth. The lack of employment and job training in foster care is expected to hinder the growth of the child and youth services market. According to Foster, a US-based non-profit organization, after aging out of foster care, homelessness and unemployment become a huge challenge for youth. Although there are more than 34 million entry-level jobs national wide in the US, many foster youths are not prepared for being independent and do not have the skills or resources needed for the opportunities. Access to technology is crucial for foster children to be competing with their peers. Foster youth do not receive the same resources and opportunities as their peers. For instance, only 5% of rural, and 21% of urban foster youth have access to a computer at home. Therefore, the lack of employment and job training facilities in foster care and some communities has a negative impact on the child and youth services market. Predictive analytics is a technique increasingly used by communities for the welfare of children and youth. Predictive analytics in the context of child welfare is commonly about maltreatment risk levels. The approach works through quantifying the risk and can be used to target the services that are given to children, families, and communities that are most likely to have benefits. For instance, the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services used a predictive analysis model to understand the children who were at risk of placement in congregate care settings. The predictive analytics identified a set of predictors including behavioral and emotional problems of children. This helped the department to design and implement a therapeutic foster care intervention that could be an alternative for congregate care. In April 2021, Clifford Beers, a US-based children's mental health outpatient clinic acquired Farnam House for an undisclosed amount.

Services for the elderly and persons with disabilities refers to non-residential social assistance programs offered to improve the quality of life for the elderly, people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and people with disabilities. The main types of services for the elderly and persons with disabilities are institutional care; adult daycare, and home care. Adult day care is a structured activity program in a professional care setting for older adults who need supervised care during the day or who are isolated and lonely. The various service providers include public expenditures, private expenditures, and out-of-pocket spending that is used by the elderly and disabled adults. The services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market statistics, including services for the elderly and persons with disabilities industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market share, detailed services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the services for the elderly and persons with disabilities industry. This services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market size will grow from $445.58 billion in 2022 to $476.91 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market size is expected to grow to $605.54 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.2%. The decreasing household size coupled with a rapidly aging population is anticipated to aid in the growth of the services for the elderly and persons with disabilities market. The decline in household size is attributed to the reduced number of people living as a family. For instance, according to the English Housing Survey, the average household size in the UK was 2.2 persons in 2020-2021, down from 2.4 persons in 2019- 2020. Also, the surge in the aging population is generating higher demand for services for elderly people, thereby propelling the revenues of the market. According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs report published on World Population Ageing, there were 727 million persons aged 65 years and above in 2020, up from 703 million in 2019 and this number is likely to double to 1.5 billion people by 2050. In addition to this, the number of people aged 80 years and older is projected to increase from 143 million in 2019 to 426 million by the end of 2050. The need for care for the aging population creates a demand for services for the elderly and disabled, which, in turn, drives the market. Elder abuse in centers that provide services for the elderly and persons with disabilities are expected to hamper the market. Elder abuse is increasing in the institutions that provide care to the elderly. According to the report released by the World Health Organization in June 2020, about 2 in 3 staff working in institutions such as nursing homes and long-term care facilities have reported that they have committed abuse in the previous year. Elder abuse can lead to serious physical injuries and long-term psychological consequences. The high abuse rate among elders in the care settings, therefore, creates a state of fear for the elders and their loved ones opting for these services, which leads to a decision of not opting for these services, thereby, hindering the market. Many companies across the globe are using robots to smoothen the transition of providing care facilities to elderly patients. For instance, Bright Cape, an Eindhoven-based company, has developed SARA, which stands for social and autonomous robotic health assistants. The project is part of the European EIT Digital Innovation Consortium and aims to reduce the workload in healthcare and improve the quality of treatment in general. Japan is installing robots in nursing homes, workplaces, and schools as its population ages and the labor force decline.
