Neither. Correct is:
THE family is/are...
You can use either.

In AMERICAN English, "family" is usually singular:
My family liveS in a nice house; My family IS very important to me.
If you are thinking of individual members, then it's fine in American English to use the plural:
[The members of] my family HAVE interesting jobs; [The members of] my family ARE planning their summer vacations.

E' singolare, quindi "is" invece di "are."
