Potenciál umění v procesu resocializace mladých dospělých po jejich odchodu z dětského domova
The Potential of Art in the Process of Resocialization of Young Adults After Their Leaving the Children's Home

Summary/Abstract: Every year a significant number of young people leave children's homes. They are facing a difficult stage in their lives, and they have to integrate back into society. The main aim of this paper is to present the results of a qualitative research that investigated whether artistic activities are present in the process of young adults' integration into intact society. Furthermore, we investigated what opportunities artistic activities offer to the group of young adults under study. The research findings showed that although artistic activities have a considerable potential for effective resocialisation, the young adult group under study does not fully exploit this potential. On the basis of the results, we propose to enrich the educational reality of the children's home with a more significant use of arts education.
