dc.description.abstractSupported housing is an alternative to a large number of boarding schools, psychoneurological dispensaries for people with disabilities and institutions for elderly people which are still acting in Ukraine, and, due to the war, there is a tendency to its growing. Supported housing envisages a significant level of inhabitants’ independency, but, at the same time, provides relevant support for them. The importance of such support is being significantly increased during the wartime when a large number of people, in the first instance those who belong to vulnerable populations, loose their house, relatives and close people, who might be providing them with the relevant support in case of other circumstances. Thus for the purpose of the study it was important to explore how the Ukrainian state regulates the number of institutions where supported living is organized and to understand what creates barriers for creation and development the units for supported living in communities. Based on the study outcomes it is possible to state that the number of such institutions acting in Ukraine is quite small. One of the most important reasons for the above is that the standards developed by the Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine which the place for supported living has to meet are quite high. In addition, according to the requirements, accommodation for 6-12 persons has to be provided by a large number of personnel, specifically, an administrative and economic personnel, social workers, home assistants and a psychologist. There are lots of communities which are not able to provide relevant requirements, especially within the war conditions when there is a large lack of resources, both material and human ones. Thus, it’s very actual, in the first instance, to simplify the relevant requirements, to organize training that would ensure an opportunity to community representatives to arrange supported living for their inhabitants and to prevent them from being accommodated to the institutional facilities.en_US
