The work of executive bodies is aimed at social protection of orphans and children deprived of parental care, realizing their rights to education, health and harmonious development. To do this, first of all, we need to involve in family care as many children as possible.

Transcarpathian region ranks high on the number of family-type orphanages. Today there are 36 of them here. In 2013, we plan to create two family-type orphanages in Vynogradiv and Uzhgorod districts, as well as 14 foster families – Nataliya Krasnohorska said.
