The program "Housing - accessible to orphans, graduates of care institutions 2020-2023" (hereinafter the "Program") contributes to the provision of housing for graduates of residential institutions of the Ternopil region, from among orphans and children deprived of parental care and persons from their number (hereinafter Graduates) for the years 2020-2023 and was developed to implement the decision of the Board of the Ternopil Regional Charitable Fund "Future of Orphans" No. 001 dated June 21, 2020, with the aim of providing housing (temporary, permanent) to graduates of residential institutions who permanently live in the territory of the Ternopil Region and in accordance with defined by the legislation of Ukraine as requiring improvement of living conditions.

The program is valid under the following conditions:

• availability of funds in the account of the Orphans Future Foundation
• for young families and single citizens from the number of persons, graduates of residential care institutions, orphans and children deprived of parental care, registered in the Ternopil region during the last 10 years of age

The legislation of Ukraine in the field of providing housing to citizens is based on the Constitution of Ukraine and consists of normative legal acts of civil, housing and land legislation and other normative legal acts regulating relations in this area.

Implementation period: September 2020. - September 2023

Program participants: Persons from the number of orphans and those deprived of parental care aged 23 and over who are graduates of care institutions of the Ternopil region.

Solution: Persons from the number of orphans, graduates of care institutions of the Ternopil region have access to tools and resources to provide themselves with stable temporary or permanent housing in Ukraine during the period of adaptation to adult independent life.

Problem: the economic situation in Ukraine leads to a decrease in the level of social life of most people. Young people from the number of orphans and those deprived of parental care, graduates of care institutions found themselves in a particularly difficult situation. They have no relatives who could support them in providing them with stable housing or any kind of roof over their heads. Without registration and a certificate of official income, orphans cannot obtain the required amount of credit from bank institutions or become a participant in state programs for obtaining affordable housing. Most have to go into debt, which in turn leads to an even greater decline in their standard of living, and they slide into crushing poverty and depression.

The lack of available resources and tools necessary to provide housing for themselves and their families deprives graduates of residential institutions from among orphans and children deprived of parental care of their basic constitutional right to housing and, accordingly, their future well-being. Without their own housing and registration, they are demotivated to earn and save money, officially get a job or start their own families, due to the fear of being out on the street at any moment, and as a result, their lives end in alcoholism, homelessness or ending up in shelters.

Fear of the unknown turns into aggression and apathy, because until the age of 23, the state of Ukraine did not provide these young people with appropriate housing guaranteed by the laws of Ukraine and reduced them to a helpless state.
