Summary/Abstract: The interest in problems involving foster care of children who are social orphaned is still actual because of the aspiration of different institutions involved in assistance by obtaining of the optimal development conditions and support in preparation to an independent life. Foster care is exercised over children whose biological parents are not able to carry out the care and educational functions. People, who decide to take up the foster care mission should be properly prepared to do it. It is extremely important to make the foster care professional. Absolutely, the appropriate socialization can only take place in a stabile educational environment. Because of the fact that, those families should only temporary substitute biological parents in the process of binging up the children, the foster parents are also obligated to take up the compensatory activities in their education. In the article the author presented the explanation of the words ‘care’ and ‘upbringing’ as well as a range of works , that have to be done by the foster families and family orphanages. Based on research, she tried to answer the question how different forms of foster care educate and look after the children in the district of Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski and what it is dependent on. The development of the foster care is not without importance for reduction of the effects of the social orphanhood. That is why, looking for new solutions should be based on interdisciplinary research.
