Specifically, it focuses on the concept of homelessness, its forms, history and presence in the Czech Republic. Further, I describe the lifestyle of homeless people, their health (physical and mental) and the problem of alcoholism among the homeless. I deal with homeless people as crime offenders and victims as well.

Attitudes of pupils of primary schools towards selected minorities.
ŠPIČKOVÁ, Hana
This bachelor thesis theoretically and practically examines the attitudes of pupils in the 7th and 8th grades of basic schools to selected minorities (the marginalized minority of the homeless, homosexuals, EMO subculture and religious minority of the Satanists). The theoretical part of this bachelor thesis deals with definitions of attitudes, prejudices and stereotypes. We have further characterized the early adolescence, which provides basic information about the developmental stage of the respondents in the target group. The most extensive part of the theoretical part contains information about the selected minorities. Basic terms were explained for each of the minorities and it was described how many members of those minorities there are in the Czech society. Further, for most minorities we have described the development of attitudes of the society to them. One exception is the EMO subculture for which it is impossible to map the development of attitudes as for this group no relevant investigations were conducted which would make it possible to describe the development. The objective of this bachelor thesis to map attitudes of pupils in the 7th and 8th grades of basic schools to the selected minorities (the marginalized minority of the homeless, homosexuals, EMO subculture and religious minority of the Satanists) in the Czech Republic (on a sample in the district of Žďár nad Sázavou), with differentiation based on the sex of the respondents. Before conducting the research three hypotheses were formulated and subsequently confirmed. Hypothesis No. 1: Boys and girls in the researched sample group demonstrate a higher sympathy for the homeless compared to the other selected groups. Hypothesis No. 2: More than 50 % of the girls in the researched sample group demonstrate a positive attitude to the homosexuals. Hypothesis No. 3: More than 50 % of the girls in the researched sample group demonstrate a positive attitude to the EMO subculture. All the established hypotheses we have been confirmed for the selected sample group. The research has been conducted using a quantitative technique, through interviewing by means of my own questionnaire, based on a presentation of illustrative photos. The questionnaire was anonymous and it was completely filled out by 104 respondents. The research was complemented with 6 interviews with selected respondents to map their attitudes. The contribution of this work consists in the mapping of the actual attitudes of the respondents to the mentioned minorities. Results of the work could be used as a feedback for the professional and interested general public. The thesis may also serve as an input for workshops with children at selected basic schools, to deepen their knowledge about the concerned minorities.

Information in the social sphere for the citizens jeopardized by a social exclusion
FICHTNEROVÁ, Eva
The research of my bachelor work was focused on the issue how much are information necessary and interesting for the people jeopardized by a social exclusion, if they properly get to them and if they have the right form. There is a lot of information in the social sphere and they are important for all of us. From the questionnaires I gave to the people in the sanctuary House of St. Paul and in the streets of České Budějovice I received many answers significant for the knowledge of our community and for my job in public relations with Městská charita České Budějovice (a charitable non-governmental organization). In theoretical part of my work I described general causes and specific problems associated with the life of the excluded citizens, especially their difficulties with the employment, health state, problems with information and communication barriers with organizations and institutions, examples of their excluded or homeless life, possibilities how to return to the common life. In relation to the social services I stated some fundamental legislature. In the practical part I concentrated on the question of a passing and preferred forms of information among them. Answers I got brought me to improvements even in my job (for example a better marking to the sanctuary house from the railway station, maps on the web sites with a marking of the way and the bus stop, more brochures with information in the railway station). I learned that homeless people would be very glad to obtain some knowledge in the field of information technologies and I recommended Internet courses for them. I realized, that all the people living in the street, are interested in information and the most essential way, how to provide information to them, is a street-work.
