Supportive Social Network And Social Accompaniment of Families afterDivorce

Aim. The main objective of the paper is to provide a rescue support network during divorce for families with children through social workers in state institutions. The authors identify the practical empirical experiences of social workers in individual procedures and statements in the empirical part. Methods. The authors use a literary-descriptive method, which they use for the analytical-synthetic collection of professional and scientific knowledge. They overlap them with the practical empirical experiences of the authors, but also with statements of social workers from practice in state institutions. Results. Social workers working with families in divorce and post-divorce proceedings are the most important experts who are in contact with families in connection with other state institutions. Social workers are ready to help bridge the divorce period and look for possible solutions in the form of social counseling, recommendations for the use of counseling and experts from other accredited entities, using programmes in centers for children and families or mediation. Conclusion. The life of a single parent is saturated with a number of problems that need to be solved in cooperation with a social worker. The latter is competent to solve, but also to prevent new problematic situations arising after divorce. Social workers are important not only for parents, but also for children who go through each divorce procedure.
