pour déterminer que la famille d'accueil est le bon choix pour l'enfant.

Explanation:
Il faut rendre la nuance importante que l'accueil dans la famille proposée crée une bonne situation, cette famille est un "bon choix" dans le sens non seulement de leur capacité à accueillir, mais aussi au vu de la société dans son ensemble, y compris dans ses préjugés. Je pense que c'est pour ça que l'anglais a choisi "suitabilty" plutôt que "ability".
