Social work with homeless people serving a custodial sentence
Deutschová, Barbora ; Pěnkava, Pavel (advisor) ; Ripka, Štěpán (referee)
The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to introduce the reader to the work of a social worker with homeless people serving prison sentences during all the phases of their sentence. It defines the specifics of social work in prisons and describes the various types of situation that most convicts experience and the ways in which these situations may be resolved. The work also covers the definition of the roles of prison social worker, social curator and social worker for a non-profit organization, and effective ways in which they can work together. Several independent studies have found that social work has a significant impact on reducing recidivism and crime in general, since it serves as an effective tool not only when working with people in prison, but also as a tool to prevent crime. In my case studies, therefore, I show how to do the kind of social work that we already know is reducing recidivism. The benefit of my work lies in a deeper understanding of the mechanisms behind the quantitative results of social work. Keywords Social work, recidivism, offender, sentence, prison, homeless person

The project Pragulic view guides - homeless people
KLESTILOVÁ, Denisa
The numbers of people without shelter in our society are still growing, and there are only few of those who are able to come back from the street. The Pragulic Project, dealing with the issue of homelessness, and which is the main topic of this bachelor thesis, was founded by a group of young people five years ago. Out of shelterless individuals it picks reliable people, employing them as guides, giving them a chance to include them again into the society, ensuring them financial income as well. In the theoretical part I deal with the issue of homelessness and its definitions. Moreover, I deal with characterizing individuals without shelter and with how these people are perceived by the public. Causes that lead to homelessness and forms of homelessness make up an important chapter of this thesis, as every single individual on the street lives a different lifestyle, and can not always be detected at the first sight. Further on, it deals with social business, its characteristics and benefits of the Pragulic Project. This chapter contains information on this social business, such as in which cities these exhibitions may be attended by the public, and how many guides are employed by the business. The aim of this thesis is to find out and evaluate the subjective benefits the Pragulic Project brings to individuals without shelter, and in connection to the given aim, which is stated above, the one main research question has been presented. RQ: How has the Pragulic Project influenced the life situation of its guides people without shelter? The research file is represented by four guides from the Pragulic Project, from whom the data was obtained via semi-structured interviews. The data was subsequently evaluated via a qualitative research strategy, using case studies, within which open coding was used. The thesis results may be used by the Pragulic Project organizers as backfeed from the guides who are taking part in the research, and it may be useful for other activities linked to the project organization and other activities supporting individuals without shelter. From the perspective of benefits for the public it may serve as an impulse to participate in exhibitions and thus take part in helping individuals without shelter, and in developing the social project. At the same time they may change their prejudice and opinions on individuals without shelter, which is also one of the main aims of the project. The results prove that the project has been beneficial to each addressed guide. One of the guides expresses even a negative opinion on the financial evaluation for the exhibition, but at the same time he admits that the money is beneficial to him from time to time. The guides describe the first time they were introduced to the project, and they give the advantages that they find about the project. Every single one of them evaluates the project differently, but all of them believe it is beneficial for both people without shelter, and the public.
