Summary/Abstract: The article presents some basic aspects of sexual education of children and young people accommodated in the residential homes in Bulgaria. The normative regulations that determine the directions of sexual education in these services are examined and the results of a research conducted among the staff of the three homes in Veliko Tarnovo are presented. The need for regular training and activities is justified precisely because of the vulnerability of children and young people as well as the risk situation they were exposed to. Emphasis is placed on the formation of sexual culture and the sexual education conducted in the residential care service (Family home), as well as the difficulties faced by the staff in conducting discussions and activities on the issues under consideration.
