The Bulgarian President Georgi Parvanov visited the children and young adults at Mogilino social care home last week. The visit was part of an official tour of social care conditions in the region. Officials from the municipality of Russe guided the President around the home as well as taking him to the nearby Nadejda home where 12 children have been placed from Mogilino. Experts explained they are working with parents who have placed their children in institutional care previously, to now take them back and rebuild their family group. To date 3 children from Mogilino have started the process of reintegration with their families.
Despite the government’s announcement that the home will close at the end of year, 42 residents remain at the Mogilino home and plans for their future care is still undecided. There is particular concern that if no suitable placements can be found, the young adults risk being sent to the dreaded adult institutions.
