Abstract
The article provides a brief overview of the main legislative acts that became the normative basis for social security for the families of workers and peasants in post-revolutionary Russia. The most difficult socio-economic situation caused by the social upheavals of the beginning of the 20th century directly affected the everyday life of Soviet residents who had a priority need of food, providing medical treatment and medicines, receiving social benefits in case of tough living situations and other difficulties in the field of state support for large and single parent families, etc. The author focuses on the contribution of public organizations that provided strong assistance to Soviet workers in solving pressing problems in everyday life in the first two decades of the Soviet power. The analysis of the normative framework showed that despite the sufficiently developed social sphere, not all areas of social security had received ample funding, or the State requirements for social assistance measures had not been met. Nevertheless, we can talk about a wide range of social services that could be used by residents of the country, especially children, adolescents, and elderly people. The study provides a general picture of the government policy of the Soviet state on the social security of the family in 1917–1936.
