Abstract

The problems of care of orphans in Poland are studied in the article. It is mentioned, that the family is the best upbringing environment for children and youth. A lot of efforts should be taken for orphans to be adopted, to have a two-parent family, if the law allows them, or to be brought up in a foster family, if there is an opportunity to come back to a biological family. Undoubtedly, one should work with the child’s family and tries to solve the problems that led to taking the child out of the family. The well-tried forms can be family orphanages. The least desirable upbringing environments for orphans are children’s homes (orphanages). Unfortunately, they are the only ways of the difficult situations for many social orphans, lacking parental care. This article presents characteristics of different forms of foster care, including family and institutional forms of care.
