Yes, it's right. But if you're including this in a formal paper, I'd change it to "His goal is to explain why having large families, in most cases, RESULTS in a struggle to provide the family with necessities." Going to result is an awkward tense to use in this way.
(Is this about Malthus?)

Your sentence is grammatically correct but just because its grammatically correct doesn't mean it makes sense.Their are so many ways you can word this sentence to make it sound so much better.
Try this
His goal is to clarify why having a large family will, in most cases; result in struggling to provide the family with necessities.

I've read it three times. I don't see why you're asking the question. It is a literate question, and seems grammatically and syntactically correct.
That's true as far as the sentence itself goes. But were you sakiing something else? Were you asking whether the sentence is factually correct?
Who knows? If your concern is whether the sentence is factually true as a synopsis of what somebody said and wrote, then nobody can answer without knowing whose argument you are referring to.

It's right. Not clear. As an editor, I'd recommend rewording for clarification... but grammatically speaking, it's correct.
