The Center's social workers work for the establishment of the social status and defense of these children's rights. Thanks to this work thirty-seven children have returned to their families, twenty-five are under our care, and six have been adopted into loving homes. Altogether 167 children have received help from Center.

One of our most important and fruitful tasks is aimed at the renewal of proper relationships between children and their parents. Every child at Father's House has an opportunity to renew their relationship with their biological family. To enable this, members of our team work to establish contact with the parents of the children trusted to us. Our counselors provide administrative support for registration of lost or destroyed documents and search for opportunities to help the child return to a more normal life through reuniting families.

In August 2003, we began developing foster families within the structure of the Center's work. In our facility a separate apartment is provided for each autonomous family. In each family there is a mother and father and up to ten children; the task of which is to live a model of real family life. This model promises to be most effective in helping these children develop relationship skills in the most basic of all social structures: the family. It is our hopes that we can develop six such foster-families, five families currently exist. Part of family life is educating the children. The older children study at various schools which are appropriate for their particular needs.

Some of our 'graduates' have entered the work force and are providing for themselves, others have married and are starting their own families.
