Possibilities of Activation of a Client Set at Liberty from Imprisonment from the Point of View of a Social Worker
LUDÍNOVÁ, Ivanka Anna
As a subject-matter of my bachelor's thesis I have chosen "Actuation possibilities for a person released after serving the imprisonment sentence (SIS) in a social worker's view", because the theme is so actual in respect of the number of the imprisoned and the urgent need to motivate such clients towards active cooperation with social workers in order to succeed in their reintegration to our society. The bachelor's thesis is divided into two parts. Within the theoretical chapter, I am defining key terms and latest approaches which are both the most current in the field of social services and welfare, and essential for the research pursuit. I also deal with the hottest issues of people recently experiencing the SIS, their characteristics, life situation and the imprisonment impact on their personalities. In other chapters, I address to particular activities of social curators, their scope of work and tasks being applied upon treatment of clients released from prison after SIS. As for the elaboration of the research chapter of this bachelor's thesis and the accomplishment of stipulated objectives, a quantitative observation/questioning survey is used. The original and main aim of my bachelor's thesis has been to detect all needs of prospective clients, who are to be released from prison after serving the imprisonment sentence in near future, while residing permanently in the territory of the Pilsen City, to find out more on potential difficulties of a social curator-client cooperation within their mutual continual work and post penitentiary care, and also, in terms of the ascertained needs of such clients including the mentioned collaboration risks, to recommend a practicable actuation process of a client released from prison after serving a sentence. Based on the specified objectives, two hypotheses have been formulated. The research section describes the initial goals of investigation, methodology and techniques chosen for gathering the required information, and I am describing the search sample and the execution of data acquisition, too. Furthermore, I focus on the data interpretation and last but not least the discussion over the interviewing results. The intention of my thesis is fulfilled. The assumption no. 1 cannot be confirmed at all while the second assumption has now been fully proved to be true. This approach could be used as a guideline for other colleagues ? social curators, and/or it might also broaden the awareness horizons of the laics and general public on this tough and complicated situation of the clients released from prison sentence along with a social curator's challenging job.

Social Including of Convicted Offenders Left from Prison
PROCHÁZKOVÁ, Andrea
The title of the thesis is Social Integration of People Released from the Prison. The theoretical part describes current situation concerning living conditions of the people sentenced to the prison, that are determined by legal standards in Czech Republic and by internal regulations of each jail house. These conditions form the personality of convicts and influence their social situation, relationships, and connections. The convicts need after the release to be helped with their integration into the society the most and also to be helped with handling their social situation to avoid recidivism. The aim of the diploma work is to describe problems of individuals released from the prison and the process of resocialization in detail. The thesis also provides the survey of possibilities for helping these people, thus service provided for people with inability to adapt to a society and types of facilities dealing with this target group. The practical part was conceived as the qualitative research in form of case studies using semi-structured interviews with the individuals released from the prison. I asked eight clients 28 questions in following categories: social situation of clients before the sentence, their life while imprisoned, their return to freedom and cooperation of the clients with institutions. There was also performed subsidiary quantitative research within the diploma work. I inquired social workers supervising released adults two questions, using e-mail correspondence. The questions were concerning the most frequent problems they had to deal with, after a client was released from the prison, and also services in Czech Republic{\crq}s system that workers missed in helping the target group. I outlined the comparison of the results coming out of my investigation with the current situation in related area, and also with other investigations at the end of my thesis. I recommend for improving the situation of the released individuals from prison to establish institutions with complete range of assistance, multi focused team, and the support in employing the people with criminal records as the high quality instrument of their social integration.
