SOCIAL POLITICAL ARRANGAMENTS OF STATE AND THEIR PROFITS IN FAMILIES WITH MENTALLY DISABLED CHILD
HNISOVÁ, Lenka
There were many changes in the Czech social system during last years. Many possibilities for people with disabilities appeared in a state and a non-profit sector - more social benefits and social service. The only problem is in their chaotic arrangement. My thesis is concretely focused on potentialities of families with mentally disabled children. In my theoretical part I therefore describe not only mental illnesses and its stages but also a family of a disabled child and parental education. Hereafter I attend to education and socialization of individuals with a mental disability. The second part of theory targets three social principles of the social system {--} the social insurance, state social support and social welfare/care. At the end of this part I mention the significance of non profit organizations for people affected by mental disabilities. Following theoretical is the practical part which aims (and that is my work{\crq}s objective also) to determine the knowledge of parents about our social benefit schemes and support. Specifically this means to chart the current state of affairs {--} informedness functioning. Based upon these results then create an outline (benefits, services) which will help the parents to distinguish more efficiently within all services offered. The survey was carried out by questionnaires. These were intended for parents of mentally disabled children and aimed at their knowledge. The correspondents {--} parents {--} were separated into groups in accordance with their educational background. It emerged from my results that parents with elementary education are feeling well informed whilst parent with higher education do not consider themselves informed although in accordance with their answers they have a better insight into their child{\crq}s options. Generally the majority of the polled (77%) is not feeling informed. The problem is inadequate information system. Respondents also mentioned what they are lacking in most and what they would consider as being most helpful. The most common answers concerned missing comprehensive review, informative brochures and sufficiently informed staff, which I did contemplate. Based upon these results I have conceived an overview of primary options specifically designed for families with mentally disabled children. I may thus claim that both my hypothesis have been confirmed. I behold the anticipated development of my work in merging information about assigned issues with creating a review of primary options for families with a mentally disabled child. I do hope that this work will leastwise improve their awareness.

Attitude of the Public to the Application of the Social Solidarity Principle in the Czech Republic
POTŮČKOVÁ, Barbora
The aim of the thesis was to find out the view of common Czech Republic population on the principle of social and intergenerational solidarity implementation into the society and to find out the rate of confidence of citizens in the state social system. In the theoretical part of my thesis I deal with the principle of the social solidarity, the history of development of the social policy, the social security system and the care about the social security system. I focus on social solidarity target groups and the way of the social security funding, too. My research work is based on the technique of the questionnaire which was performed by questionning in the region of {\clqq} Vysočina land`` via e-mail. I think that I accomplished the stated targets and both hypotheses were proved. Results of the research work are that Czech citizens prove great deal of the social feeling. Conclusions resulted from the research work may serve as warning on the common social tuning and as an indicator of dearth in the social system which would be suitable to solve as the first one.

The work deals with the current system of social security - security of women on maternity and parental leave in the Czech Republic. Also examines the employment of women during maternity and parental leave in connection with social and living standards of families with children. This is a theoretical analysis of the social benefits guaranteed by the state and provided to women, in turn dependent families with young children, based on the conditions and possibilities of their implementation. Starting a family is a social event that is perceived by the positive. To support families with young children, the state spends some means and make sure the measures to a woman {--} a mother in the maternity and parenting to provide and protect. For this reason, a large part of this thesis focused on an overview of the social benefits associated exclusively with motherhood and parenting, both in terms of social policy, family, and in terms of labor law.

Awareness of the public about social assistance system in the Czech Republic
NAJMANOVÁ, Radka
This thesis deals with the social assistance system in the Czech Republic and makes a survey of the system as a whole. Its main objective is to present changes that have occurred in this particular area and to show how the Czech public perceives these reforms. In the theoretical part of the thesis I feature characteristics of the social assistance system with an emphasis on forms of assistance {--} social assistance benefits and social services. The empirical part describes views of respondents selected from the general public of individual areas of social assistance system and also of the system as a whole, including its evaluation. Partial objectives of research investigation turned out to be very important for making a survey of the views, therefore I focused also on finding out experience of people and awareness about social assistance system and resources people obtain this information from. I used quantitative research, the interview method and as a data collection technique I used a questionnaire. The research results show that awareness of the public about social assistance system is rather poor. Most addressed people had very incomplete knowledge in the field of social security and did not know the term social assistance at all. Respondents weren´t able to express their opinion because they had little information about the issue. The results point out low level of awareness and lack of interest of the Czech public about social assistance. I believe that Czech public is disoriented following the adoption of new laws. I would recommend paying much more attention to the transmission of information to users, to support general awareness and the ability of competent authorities to provide users with understandable information.

Entitlement to Attendance Allowance and control process over its usage in people aged 18 and over.
STANKOVÁ, Jana
The thesis deals with attendance allowance and the control process over its usage in people aged 18 and over. Process of entitlement for attendance allowance is governed by the Act on Social Services. Attendance allowance is provided to people who, because of long-term adverse health condition, need assistance of another individual to care for them and to ensure their self-sufficiency. The purpose of this benefit is to enable the entitled person to ensure care and choose the provider of necessary assistance through providers of social services or related person. Local authority decides specified degree of dependence and also carries out checks of usage of the benefit. A proposal to amend the Act is currently being discussed with the aim to adjust the system of social services in a way to take into account findings from practice, in particular in the area of clear conditions of entitlement and use of the attendance allowance. The objective of the thesis is to find out impacts of upcoming changes in recipients of attendance allowance in the 1st degree of dependence and to make a survey of experience of social workers with checks of usage of the benefit. To achieve the objective a questioning method was used, the technique of semi-structured interview, secondary analysis of data and participant observation. The research has shown that in recipients in 1st degree of dependence the attendance allowance is paid in the amount which does not correspond to actual costs incurred to provide the assistance. It can therefore be assumed that reduction in the allowance would not endanger provision of necessary care. Interest in social services is not likely to increase by payment of the allowance in 1st degree of dependence by means of vouchers. Futhermore, it was found out that there are not any explicit methodical guidelines which would describe implementation of controls over usage of the allowance. More specific definition of control activities would enable to carry out controls more effectively and transparently. Implementation of more controls is possible only under the condition of increasing staff numbers of administrative authorities.

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.

Východiska systému sociální pomoci v ČR
Černohorská, Jana ; Krebs, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Průša, Ladislav (referee)
Základem mé diplomové práce je vysvětlit hlavní principy systému sociální pomoci v ČR a popsat změny, které bylo nutné provést už od počátku 90. let. Sociální pomoc je velice důležitou oblastí sociální politiky každé země, protože řeší situace nouze hmotné a sociální tj. neschopnost zabezpečovat základní životní potřeby. Celý systém však musí být nastaven tak, aby na straně jedné jeho fungování přineslo pomoc sociálně potřebným, zabezpečilo dostatek sociálních služeb a jejich rozvoj a na straně druhé odstranilo zneužívání sociálních dávek a dotací.
