He cites the example of the Republic where the binding is complete examination of physical and mental health, the lack of alcohol and drug abuse.

The Deputy of the mayor Yury Molica noted that the complex solution of problems related to social adaptation of orphans and children deprived of parental care is one of the important components of relevant units of the city Council. “Most socially unprotected layers of the population in Ukraine is the people that become a burden to society. Therefore, our task is to help them become productive members of society. In Europe, the orphans are no worse than their peers from nuclear families. They study, play sports, attend various clubs. In my opinion, is to encourage sport and cultural institutions in which to educate these children” - he stressed. The Director of the Lutsk city center of social services for family, children and youth Lina Galan said that a priority of the center is not only working with orphaned children, but with families who are in difficult life circumstances. The center is engaged in conducting various lectures and interviews to provide psychological support to families who are adoptive parents. The representative of the Volyn regional branch of all-Ukrainian charitable organization “children's Welfare” Mr. Watkins drew attention to the fact that in recent years Ukraine has significantly reduced the number of orphans in boarding schools. This suggests that the number of people who are willing to become foster parents is growing. So he finds it necessary to conduct a variety of trainings for foster families, adoptive parents and guardians. A series of similar workshops planned to start in conjunction with the service for children and center of social services for family, children and youth in the next year.
