Odraščanje v izvendružinski vzgoji kot dejavnik brezdomstva

Kreft Toman, Ina (avtor), Dekleva, Bojan (mentor)

Raziskave kažejo, da je med brezdomnimi neproporcionalno visok delež tistih, ki so del odraščanja preživeli v izvendružinski vzgoji. Zato je seveda potrebno, da se vprašamo, kako sta pojava povezana med seboj. V teoretičnem delu so predstavljeni tako oba pojma, kot tudi izsledki raziskav, ki se ukvarjajo s tem vprašanjem. Otroci in mladostniki v izvendružinsko vzgojo prihajajo tudi zaradi neprimernih razmer za rast in razvoj v matični družini, obenem pa se jih večina po zaključenem bivanj vrača v družine. Širša družbena slika nam kaže, da je osamosvojitev težka za vse mlade, saj je najemni fond nizek, služb je premalo za vse in vse več mladih ostaja pri starših do poznih dvajsetih let. Mladi iz izvendružinske vzgoje pa se osamosvajajo bistveno prej, ponavadi že okrog polnoletnosti. Raziskave kažejo, da so kot odrasli manj zdravi, imajo več težav na duševnem področju in so bolj pogosto brezdomni in prejemniki socialne pomoči kot vrstniki. Obstoječi programi ne odgovarjajo na potrebe te ranljive skupine mladostnikov na prehodu iz izvendružinske vzgoje v samostojnost. Poodpustni programi so oblikovani od institucije do institucije po svoje in slonijo na dobri volji posameznikov. Ne obstaja skupen sistematičen, finančno in materialno podprt program na državni ravni. Skozi intervjuje oseb, ki so imele tako izkušnjo odraščanja v izvendružinski oskrbi kot tudi brezdomstva, se sliši osem različnih zgodb. Obenem pa se te zgodbe spletejo v eno samo pripoved o področju med dvema oblikama izključenosti: izvendružinsko oskrbo, ko vrstniki živijo doma in brezdomnostjo, ko nimajo doma.

Izvleček

Research show that there are disproportional parts of those growing up in state care among the homeless. That leads us to the necessary question of how those two phenomenon are interlinked. In theoretical part both are defined and the research on both fields is presented. Children and youth are placed in out of family care also on grounds of their families being unsupportive of their development and growth. On the other side most of those youth when leaving care return to their families. For most young people today gaining independence is hard in the context of our society. There aren’t enough apartments for rental available and there aren’t enough jobs available for everyone, so many more young people are forced to stay with their parents into their late twenties. Youth care leavers are gaining independence earlier than peers, usually around their turning of full age. Research shows that they are less healthy, have more mental issues, are more prone to experience homelessness and are more often receivers of financial aid as their peers. Programs in place today don’t offer the solutions to current issues of this group in need of special aid during their transition from out of family care into independence. Programs for care leavers vary from one institution to another and are based on good will of those in charge. There is a lack of state led, systematically, financially and materially supported program. We hear eight different stories throughout interviews of people who have experienced both out of family care and homelessness. At the same time those stories all tell us a joined tale of a place in between two forms of exclusion: out of family care as opposed to living at home as peers and homelessness when others are home owners.
