Straipsnyje pateikta termino „gatvės vaikas“ analizė bei išnagrinėtos pagrindinės vaiko tapimo „gatvės vaiku“ priežastys: prastas šeimos mikroklimatas, netinkamas tėvų pedagoginių pareigų atlikimas, motinų užimtumas darbe, destruktyvaus ugdymo šeimoje modeliai, žemas šeimų ekonominis statusas. Visi šie veiksniai vienas su kitu yra betarpiškai susiję ir veikia kaip visuma, o ne pavienis rizikos faktorius. Nevyriausybinės organizacijos turi galimybę teikti pagalbą „gatvės vaikams“ dienos centruose, kurių paslaugos yra plataus spektro-laisvalaikio organizavimas, šeimos konsultavimas, elgesio modeliavimas, prevencinės programos, ugdymas irkt. Adikto tyrimo duomenų analizė atskleidė, kad nevyriausybinių organizacijų vaikų dienos centrų teikiamos integruotos socialinės paslaugos teigiamai veikia „gatvės vaikų“ elgesį bei jų artimiausią aplinką.
The concept “street children” is defined differently. However after deep analysis of different definitions given by various scientists it can be affirmed that the most often street children are divided into three main groups: children on the street”, “children of the street” and children in the street”. The child becoming street child is a long and influenced by various factors process throughout which the most impact is done by closest child s environment — family. That is why the main sets of problems, which influence child becoming a street child, are these: poor microclimate of family; wrong performance of parent pedagogic duty; mothers’ busyness at work; destructive nurture models of family; low economic status of family. The number of street children both in the world and in Lithuania is growing, therefore an important role in correcting these children behaviour goes to children’s day centers of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), which provide integrated social services. Day centers allow children socialization by involving them into useful and interesting activity, by helping to change orientation of values, expanding horizon, adapting in the society for street children and their family members in order to lose touch with the street and its effects. The help of psychologists, social pedagogues, pedagogues and medics are given to children. The analysis of data of accomplished research discovered that integrated social services given by children’s day centers of NGOs positively affect behaviour of street children and their closest environment. It is assessed that collective session with parents organized by the children’s day centers of NGOs are orientated to the recreation, although social workers are able to satisfy street children needs of interaction and being together. Additionally children’s day centers of NGOs activity in this field is not developed enough, although street children assumed that relationships in the family become better. Results of the research showed that children’s day centers of NGOs positively affected motivation for teaching and communication skills of street children: street children’s results of schoolwork and relationships with teachers become better after starting to visit these centers. These changes are very important, because various disagreements with teachers and low results of schoolwork are the main reasons for bad or complete nonattendance of street children.
