Selfhelping groups in the Czech Republic - analysis of actual state
WASSERBAUEROVÁ, Klára
The Bachelor Thesis is concerning the theme of Self-help groups in the Czech Republic - the analysis of the current situation. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and a practice unit. The theoretical unit describes the concept of self-helping, history of self-help groups, the characteristics and principles. There are further determined the specification of the target group, the work of the social worker and the description of the importance of the group. There are characterized the self-help groups from the perspective of psychotherapy in the second half of the theoretical unit, especially in the chapter Therapeutic factors of the self-help groups. The practice unit is divided into two research files. The first research file is concerning quantitative strategy in the form of interviews with clients. Based on those interviews there was made SWOT analysis, which was principal for fulfilling the goals of the thesis. The second research group was carried out as quantitative strategy in other words by collecting data using internet sources. The collection of data was necessary to answer research questions. The first research question was: "What kinds of self-help groups are available for individual target groups in the Czech Republic?" The second research question was: "Are there any of self-help groups absent for some of target group clients?" The both research questions were successfully answered due to investigation which also demonstrated what the current situation of self-help groups in the Czech Republic is present. Searching for the information and the data related to research questions resulted in subdividing self-help groups into those which are managed professionally or based on level system, and those that belong under a specific institution or are managed individually. Also from this reason there are the self-help groups in the Czech Republic subdivided according to regions, activities, method of management and competency. The goal of the bachelor thesis is to analyze the availability of self-help groups. This goal was achieved by the performed research. The analysis demonstrated that the availability of the self help groups in the Czech Republic is increasing but the Czech Republic's position is obviously a bit behind the western countries with some work ahead of us to be done in the future.
