“…It also became apparent that the children of incarcerated parents perceive the same needs as other children. The current findings are quite different from the results of Punová et al (2020) and Navrátilová et al (2021) as regards the capability of religious needs. While in earlier research children marginalized this capability, in our study the children of incarcerated parents perceived it as important, describing their relationship with God as something that gives them strength.…”

“…It was Punová et al (2020) and Navrátilová et al (2021) who pointed out that love and care is the most important capability for children in the Czech Republic, in this case children as recipients of social services. Such findings were replicated in our research as well.…”

“…Assessing the well-being of children of incarcerated parents in the Czech Republic is a bit complicated due to the unclear definition of the well-being concept (Kornel, 2013), which has led to a narrow understanding of children’s well-being in practice (Sandin, 2014). It is understood in the Czech context as assuring care and adequate guidance, nutrition, and shelter (Navrátilová, 2018; Punová et al, 2020). We therefore chose to address these questions using CA, which offers tools for the measuring and interpretation of children’s needs in the overall context of their well-being.…”

Even though Czech social policy cites child protection as one of its main priorities, there continue to be groups of children whose needs remain unnoticed. As many as forty thousand Czech children with at least one incarcerated parent have failed to gain public attention, find no support in the national legislative framework, and are only slowly attracting the attention of helping professionals. Guided by our research question—“What are the needs of children whose parent leaves the household due to incarceration?”—we describe the individual needs of children of incarcerated parents in their own voices through phenomenological optics. These needs, recorded via individual interviews and focus groups, contextualized using the theoretical methodology of the capability approach, which serves as the framework for assessing the relationship between the stated needs of these children and their overall well-being.

Crossing professional boundaries in the context of Czech social work remains an understudied phenomenon. Additionally, the recent situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic dramatically affected work conditions and transformed social work practice. The aim of this article is to answer the following research question: How do subjectively experienced risk factors affect the social worker in situations when professional boundaries are crossed and in the context of a pandemic situation (COVID-19)? The text is based on the theory of professional boundaries in the client–worker relationship and also includes the perspective of professional boundary crossing in social work. The key conceptual framework is ecosystem theory qualitative research carried out in two phases via in-depth semi-structured interviews in the selected locality. Each phase included informers who were active as social workers in low-threshold centres for children and youth. The text is a reflection of the influence of external factors on professional boundaries and of the internal dispositions of social workers, on the basis of which the text offers practical recommendations for social work practice in three categories: social workers at the individual level, leadership and organisations, educational institutions.
