Summary

Introduction

Almost 20 years ago, our country, along with other States, adopted and ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. The Convention declares the obligation for the States parties to "provide the child with such protection and care as is necessary for his well-being" (Part 1, Article 3). It does not forget orphans and children equated to them. 20 states: "A child who is temporarily or permanently deprived of his or her family environment or who, in his or her own best interests, cannot remain in such an environment is entitled to special protection and assistance provided by the State" [1]. A social shelter is a social service institution that provides specialized services to children who find themselves in a difficult life situation and need emergency social assistance to ensure their temporary residence, social rehabilitation and further employment [3]
