Public opinion on homelessness.
RUDOVÁ, Lucie
Abstract {--} Public opinion on homelessness The issue of homelessness became very relevant in the last year. At present, the number of people without home has been growing and a nation-wide problem comes into being which cannot be overlooked by the society. As well as other problems of the current world, also the issue of homelessness is one of the popular mediaʼs topics. The homelessness as extreme expression of the poverty and social exclusion is, all the time, an issue neglected not only by the specialists and the state, but also by the lay public. For this reason it is necessary to address the public and first of all to inform the public sufficiently of the given issue. Only based on the knowledge and understanding the people will be able to treat this issue thoroughly and in a thought-out way and they will not avert the eyes from this problem. The target of my thesis is to evaluate the attitude of public to the issue of homelessness. In connection with it two hypotheses were postulated: 1) The citizens of younger age (15-30 years) have a more tolerant attitude to the issue of homelessness than citizen of older age (31-70 let). 2) The women have a higher understanding for the aid to homeless persons then men. A quantitative research was made among persons in the age group of 15-70 years residing permanently in České Budějovice and surroundings, in the form of a controlled questionnaire applying the method of the accidental choice of the respondents. The whole research was performed in the hospital in České Budějovice under the supervision of the medical staff and partly also through internet. The research file consisted of 60% respondents. The questions in the questionnaire were directed on establishment of the attitude of the public to the issue of the persons without homes. On the questions formulated in this determined way the total attitude of the respondents to homeless people was estabilshed as well as the differences in the attitude to the homeless people depending on age and sex of the respondent. The results of the research part of the thesis really proved the highly negative attitude of citizens to homeless people, however, the persons of younger age (15-30 years) showed a higher tolerance rate then citizens of older age (31-70 years). The women also showed a higher extent of altruism then men. Based on these results the hypotheses postulated in advance were confirmed unambiguously and with them also the target of the thesis.

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.

Conditions of Life of Families Living on Social Allowances in the Long Term
BERANOVÁ, Kateřina
This thesis for baccalaureate is dealing, theoretically and practically, with issues of the living conditions of families living on social allowances in the long term. The objective of the thesis was to describe the conditions of life of a selected sample of families living in dependence on the state system of the social protection focused on the social conditions of life of the families. A partial objective was to appreciate possible relationship of conditions of life of the families and the occurrence of social pathological effects and criminal activities in these families. I used the method of a concerned observation and a guided interview with the quality research. The observation was carried out in the course of visits to families and interviews with individual family members. The interviews focused on several pre-determined topics. From the data obtained from observations and interviews with the families members, I drew up four case studies. The comparison of case studies that followed proved a relationship between the lives of families depending on the financial support of the state and occurrence of the negative phenomena such as criminal activities and drug addiction. These phenomena produce a negative effect on interpersonal relations in families, contribute to psychological and emotional devastation of their members and impair the functions of the family as a whole. It is also possible to state that the surveyed families live on the conditions of income scarcity due to a low financial support of the state. It results in a certain degree of insulation of the families from their social surroundings. The criminal activities and social pathological phenomena still increase the social insulation of the families. The families attempt to resolve a number of the problems of their existence, mainly those of housing and employment. These problems are resolved by themselves or with some assistance of the broader family. For various reasons, these attempts tend to be unsuccessful. Therefore, they are left to the support of the external that is currently insufficient.
