Abstract

Orphanages are the places where all needs of children in need of protection are met. The financial needs of children who are in need of protection are met by the government. But in addition to children’s protection and sheltering needs, they are in need of socialization and taking an active role in society as well. Social integration of children in orphanages is a matter for all society. Accordingly it is possible to see social exclusion and antisocial behaviours when socialization does not occur. In this study, sense of exclusion of secondary school students living in orphanages was investigated. A total of 100 secondary school students living in Aksaray, Konya, Kayseri and Kirsehir orphanages are included in this descriptive survey model study. The data were collected via the scale developed by Ocal and Altinok (2011). Surveys were administered by the researchers themselves. SPSS was used to analyze the data. The findings of the study are important in terms of indicating social exclusion level of children living in orphanages.
