HRBKOVÁ, Vanesa
This bachelor's thesis deals with the social work of a curator for children and youth. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to describe the social work of a curator for children and youth with his clients, with a focus on the risky behavior of children and youth and possible differences in working with them. The curator for children and youth is an expert in the field of Social and Legal Protection of Children. Through its activities, it tries to use social work methods to take measures against the emergence and spread of risky behavior among children and youth. It focuses in particular on children who lead an idle or immoral life. Performs measures aimed at eliminating, mitigating, preventing, deepening or repeating disorders of the child's psychological, physical and social development. A qualitative research strategy was chosen for the research part of the bachelor's thesis, where the sample was selected by purposive selection from among Social and Legal Protection of Children workers in the South Bohemian Region, who work in the position of curator for children and youth. The necessary data were obtained by the method of questioning, the semi-structured interview technique. Subsequently, all necessary data were evaluated using open coding and data categorization was carried out. The results showed that the work of a curator for children and youth is very individual and always depends on the specific child or youth and their motivation to change their risky behavior. It also depends a lot on the family and peers of the child. Curators for children and youth mostly use interviews with the child and his entire family and case conferences in their social work. Although there are no specific scenarios for how to proceed when working with a child with a specific type of risky behavior, the curators take each case as important and always try to find a procedure that will make the best impression on the client.
