| Description | In the Czech Republic, 40 000 children currently have a parent in prison. Despite the high number of these children, there is no domestic research on this issue and the specific needs of children of incarcerated parents are not sufficiently mapped. The vision of our research project is to improve the quality of life (well-being) of children of incarcerated parents. The research design of the capabilites allows us to understand the life situation and thriving of children whose lives are marked by the departure of a parent to the VTOS. The project will explore how a parent's departure to prison affects a child's life and thriving. It will provide an overview of children's needs and risks in their lives, useful for all those working with children and incarcerated parents. The project intends to focus on practices to sustain parenting behind bars. The research project aims to improve the wellbeing of children whose suffering and difficulties are little known. This is a group of children of incarcerated parents in VTOS. |
