„Niełatwo być rodzicem” – prezentacja głównych założeń programu skierowanego do rodziców korzystających z pomocy Miejskiego Ośrodka Pomocy Społecznej w Wałbrzychu
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2012) Wójtowicz, Monika; Uniwersytet Opolski
The parenting skills workshop named “It is not easy to be a parent” is an answer to the needs of parents, pedagogues, social workers, and guardians. The article is based on the author’s professional experience. Establishing effective communication with the parents who often feel lost and helpless, and presenting them with ways to bring up their children competently – how to listen to them, how to talk to them, how to set standards, how to support and help them in overcoming difficulties – are the basis of the presented workshops. The author presents the main assumptions of the programme as well as the expected results. Other important factors supporting the process of parents’ education, i.e. the diagnosis and identification of pedagogic problems, cooperation between institutions, motivational influence, and places and resources are also discussed.

Rola ośrodków wsparcia dziennego we wspomaganiu funkcjonowania rodziny z dorosłym dzieckiem z niepełnosprawnością intelektualną i/lub psychiczną
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2012) Szalast, Anna; Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski Jana Pawła II
The overall perception of adults with intellectual and/or physical disabilities renders it necessary to consider them as individuals as well as in relation to their families, which are to be understood as natural links to communities. The exceptional situation of the families with intellectually and/or physically disabled children older than school age demands understanding and professional help. Day support centres, which constitute a major influence on the disabled, as well as their immediate environment, are an attempt at addressing these needs. The centres also allow for the achievement of a goal – they provide the families of adult children with intellectual and/or physical disabilities with support in its numerous aspects.

Działania organizacji pozarządowych na rzecz wyrównywania szans edukacyjnych dzieci ze środowiska wiejskiego
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2012) Palka, Katarzyna; Wszechnica Świętokrzyska w Kielcach
We live in a world where the access to knowledge has a decisive influence on our future. A large number of children in Poland have difficulties with this access, because they are raised in impoverished, excluded, poorly educated families of low social status. This phenomenon is mainly related to rural areas. Nonformal education should provide important support for formal education. Nonformal education should be organized with the cooperation of schools, kindergartens, and non-governmental organizations. The educational activities proposed for children and their parents by non-governmental organizations complement formal education. These activities are of crucial importance in the equalization of educational opportunities for children from rural areas. It is essential that these activities be planned, long-term, and a part of the entire educational program.

Działania Związku Pracy Obywatelskiej Kobiet na rzecz pomocy rodzinie
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2013) Piwowarczyk, Mirosław; Uniwersytet Wrocławski
The Women Citizens’ Work Association (Związek Pracy Obywatelskiej Kobiet – ZPOK) (1928–1939) was one of the most influential women’s organisations related to the Sanation movement in the Interwar Period in Poland. At the time of its greatest development it included nearly 50,000 members. Its work was carried out by Agencies located all over the country. The Association had ideological and political ties to the Sanation movement, which is why its main aim was the development of the political state-forming thought of Józef Piłsudski. In the political aspect it would attempt to implement the rules of real democracy by disseminating and developing the idea of Polish statehood and by making it possible for women to have direct influence on political, social, economic, and cultural life of Poland. In the social aspect, the Association would establish and develop a number of social services agencies, educational institutions, and cooperative manufactories, which were intended to, among others, support and empower the family, thus strengthening the new state. The main aim of the ZPOK was to help the family, especially mothers and children from the families of the unemployed, the poor, the ill, and alcoholics. The help would take on many forms. The Association established and ran i.a. Houses of Mother and Child, mother and child care centres, nurseries, kindergartens and Jordan gardens, day rooms, summer camps and day camps. It provided food for children of unemployed parents and organised legal, medical, psychological, and pedagogical advice centres. The Association would address issues crucial to the family, including upbringing, legal, economic, moral, and ethical problems. The broad scope of the Association’s work allowed for the strengthening of the family’s position in social, political, and moral life and for the improvement of the quality of life of numerous families in the Interwar Period.

Rodziny potrzebujące wsparcia w II Rzeczypospolitej – jakość życia, realizacja podstawowych funkcji, opieka społeczna
(Karkonoska Państwowa Szkoła Wyższa w Jeleniej Górze, 2013) Samsel, Agata; Uniwersytet w Białymstoku
The research done at the time proved that the main reason for families failing to fulfil their basic roles was poverty. Having little education was the other one. Once the causes of the phenomena were discovered it became possible to work out and take certain actions within a new, planned, and deliberate social policy. The government help, which was initially mainly financial and not efficient enough, was replaced by more long distance actions. The actions were aimed at improvement of the living standard of the poorest and preventing the rising of unwanted social needs. Some new forms of social support appeared. Some of them were seldom or never used before. Among them there were health care, psychological support, childcare support, and education of children and adults. The range of the actions taken was not wide enough to fulfil all the social needs. On the other hand, taking the amount of problems of the new country into consideration, the achievements of the social policy at the time were remarkable.
