Abstract

Život na margini društva nerijetko je bilo obilježje osoba s intelektualnim teškoćama. Bile su odbačene i bez prava glasa. Ni danas situacija nije puno bolja, izjednačeni su na papiru, a stvarnost i dalje zaostaje. Napretkom tehnologije pojedinac se promatra kao individua sa različitim potrebama. Osobe s intelektualnim teškoćama pokazuju najviše poteškoća u prijelazu iz adolescencije u odraslu dob. Odrastanje podrazumijeva zaposlenje, osamostaljenje, odlazak od roditelja, zasnivanje obitelji. Radna sposobnost je pretpostavka za brak, za spremnost skrbi o drugoj osobi. Izostanak posla stvara materijalnu deprivaciju koja narušava obiteljske odnose. Materijalna deprivacija je korak prema siromaštvu koje predstavlja ugrozu za samog pojedinca, a time i za obitelj. Socijalni ranik osobi s intelektualnim teškoćama može pružati pravnu pomoć u situacijama kao što je pomoć pri prikupljanju potrebnih dokumenata kako bi ostvarili određena prava ili biti posrednik u razgovoru s višim tijelima. Oni u pravilu im pomažu u informiranju o pravima i pomažu im u ostvarivanju istih.

Abstract (english)

Life on the margins of society has often been a feature of people with intellectual disabilities. They were rejected and without the right to vote. Even today, the situation is not much better, they are equal on paper and the reality is still lagging behind. With the advancement of technology, the individual is viewed as an individual with different needs. People with intellectual disabilities show the most difficulty in the transition from adolescence to adulthood. Growing up means employment, independence, leaving one's parents, starting a family. Working ability is a prerequisite for marriage, for the willingness to care for another person. Absence of work creates material deprivation that disrupts family relationships. Material deprivation is a step towards poverty that poses a threat to the individual and to the family. A social worker can provide legal assistance to a person with intellectual disabilities in situations such as assistance in gathering the necessary documents to exercise certain rights or be a mediator in discussions with higher authorities. As a rule, they help them to inform about their rights and help them to exercise their rights.
