Facilities for children 9 visits 3 children’s homes 2 children’s homes with a school 4 institutions for juveniles Summary report on facilities for children requiring immediate assistance Our visits to 11 facilities for children requiring immediate assistance were systematically evaluated. The facilities are supposed to serve as crisis points providing care for the necessary period of time when a child finds him/herself without care or in some other serious danger. The summary report deals separately with problems at the level of individual facilities and with systemic problems. These include long-term stays of 16 children, placement on the grounds of material or housing needs of the family, passivity on the part of authorities for social and legal protection of children during the child’s stay in the facility, and a lack of legislation regulating individual outings of children.
