Hanušová, Pavla ; Poláčková, Jana (advisor) ; Nováková, Ivana (referee)
In today's society there are more and more single mothers, who have to take care of their children on their own. They often have neither a proper place to stay nor sufficient financial resources for living. As a result, they end up in asylum houses or on the street. This thesis gives an overall overview of this topic, where particular concepts are elaborated and explained in detail. It consists of thirteen chapters. The theoretical part focuses on explaining the main terms and deals with the history of asylum houses in the Czech Republic. The core part of this thesis is dedicated to the research, which should have helped to find the reasons why mothers seek asylum houses. I have designed a questionnaire for the mothers living in asylum houses to fill in and also lead interviews with them directly in the asylum houses, their natural environment. The last part of the thesis gives conclusions, to which the whole research had lead and also the list of references is included.

PLUCAROVÁ, Radka
The thesis is concerned with the female homelessness phenomena. In particular, it is focused on the mother with children target group. The first part is not only based on academic sources, but also on work and experience of specialists who work with these women. The causes of female homelessness and forms of help are also examined in this part. The aim of this thesis, however, is the comparison of approach to a client in two different homeless shelters. For this purpose, the two above mentioned facilities have been chosen and characterized on the grounds of available internal sources. In the re-search part of the thesis, both interviews with social workers and a case study of a wo-man who was a client of both facilities have been carried out. The research shows that there are many factors which can influence an approach to a client from facilities' organizational structures and observing the given sets of rules, to the ability of social workers being able to empower their clients in their own decisi-ons. The fact that severing ties connected with the past is often crucial for clients can be quite an inspirational discovery for homeless shelter workers.

TITLE: The Psychological Aspects of the Life in a Shelter AUTHOR: PhDr. Roman Čepelák DEPARTMENT: Katedra psychologie SUPERVISOR: Doc. PhDr. Miloš Kučera, CSc. ABSTRACT: The master thesis explores, by analytic way, the life of clients in shelter for families with children. The thesis describes the specific shelter home in Prague - Horní Pocernice and observes its specifics in a context of other shelters. It maps the target group of users, who are mostly clients from Roma population. The thesis aims at clients' motives to live in a shelter, their coping with shelter norms and their adjustment of shelter rules to clients' own needs. It notices individual behaviors in a community of clients, describing interactions with social workers and between each other. The specific chapter is devoted to children as the youngest users of a shelter, their coping with the environment and the possibilities shelter home offers to them. The last chapter implies a certain similarity in shelter clients thinking with thinking of people living in an oral culture. The thesis disputes declared purpose of shelter home(s) as training of their own home living, since their repetitive "coming home" returns to shelter(s) witness another motives for shelter life as well. KEYWORDS: Shelter, Roma, social worker
