Social and Health Protection of Romanies

Antonija Galogaža

Sažetak

There is a small percentage of
Romanies in the total population,
but a greater proportion of them
receive social welfare than do other
members of the population. This is
a reflection of their social position.
About half of all the Romanies
treated in the centre for social work
are children and juveniles, usually
because of their socially
unacceptable behaviour. This is also
the most frequent reason among
adult Romanies. But regardless of
the immediate reason for treatment,
financial forms of protection are
the most common. One of the
reasons for this are that other
forms are not accepted or cannot
be put into effect. In most cases
the Romanies themselves are
satisfied with the social and health
protection offered, but the same
cannot be said for the social and
health protection services, which
emphasize that the considerable
financial aid is without effect
because the Romany way of life
makes them permanently in need
of social welfare and health
interventions.
