Summary/Abstract: Social and pedagogical practice shows that children with disabilities are not sufficiently protected from manifestations of violence. They and their families often either do not know their rights or do not demand their observance. Being children at risk, they are protected by law and receive institutional protection, but the problem stems from the fact that violence against children with disabilities remains invisible. The conducted research aims to study the opinions of specialists working in social services for children, including children with disabilities. The results obtained are analyzed in several directions: reasons for the manifested violence; types of violence; perpetrator (parents, relatives, teachers, classmates, specialists from practice). The legal regulation for ensuring the protection of children with disabilities, especially against manifestations of discrimination, rejection, cruelty, is also justified.
