at least 2 weeks. The girls also informed that from time to time (they could not recall how often exactly) they were permitted to use a computer. In the JEC in Łańcut, the juveniles contacted their relatives by telephone according to the following system: on weekdays, juveniles at level two of social rehabilitation had access to their own telephones between 18:30 and 21:30, and on weekends for most of the day. Juveniles who were not at level two could use the facility's telephone within the same hours. No visits conducted via the internet communicator were made. During their stay in the computer room (which happened about three times a week), the juveniles could use facebook and contact people from the outside in this way. Juveniles from the JEC in Mrowiny had most freedom in maintaining contacts with the outside world. At the facility, juveniles could use the centre’s telephone on daily basis - each educational group had its time schedule. The juveniles reported that the educators allowed them to make telephone calls also within other hours, if there was such a need. There were also situations when the staff members, in justified cases, offered the possibility of using their own telephones to the juveniles. Contacts with relatives were also possible for the juveniles from the computer room, on average two or three times a week. Right to information All juveniles interviewed by the NMPT representatives were aware of and had knowledge about the coronavirus and the possible ways of getting infected. This is a positive aspect because a good understanding of how to protect oneself against infection can effectively reduce the stress level associated with the pandemic and, as a result, prevent related incidents. According to the information received during the interviews with staff members and juveniles, all the juvenile educational centres had similar practices with regard to the provision of information about the coronavirus. At the beginning of the pandemic, information posters demonstrating appropriate hand hygiene procedures, methods of preventing infections and possible methods of contracting the coronavirus were displayed. Up-to-date information on the number of cases, and on any restrictions was also provided in general meetings. Juveniles reported they could also speak about the pandemic with their educators and ask about any aspects they did not understand or they were concerned with. Information about the coronavirus was also received from television programmes or the internet.
