Solution:
A social worker from the municipal authority with extended powers (3rd
level municipality) has regularly
visited the boy, at least once per month
throughout the period,
when he was at children’s
home. Before reaching the age of majority, he cooperates with him more intensively
together with a
social worker from
children’s home.
He
is trying to find
a suitable housing for the boy after release from children’s home. The social worker will first make a social
survey by the grandmother and find her opinion, whether her grandson might live with her in her household. In case she refused to live with him, the social worker would find out the possibility of accommodation
in a halfway house
for boys. In case, there was a fully occupied capacity, he would search for the possibilities for accommodation
in an asylum house.

for the client)
After
being released from home, the boy should
register as a job seeker at the Employment Office in Jihlava. A written request must be supported by an identity
card and an

to it within 15 days.
The appeal will
be decided by the
