Belarus, Rosatom to cooperate in logistics matters to facilitate trade

A family-type children's home was opened in Polotsk today, October 14. Representatives of regional and local authorities, public organizations, as well as everyone involved in the implementation of this project, took part in this significant event.

This is the second family-type children's home in the district (the first was opened in 2015 in the agro-town of Zhernoseki). The spacious two-story cottage is fully equipped. It has several bedrooms, a cozy living room, and a kitchen. There is a courtyard and a spacious territory with a common recreation area, a playground, and space for a vegetable garden and orchard. All children who find themselves in this family will be comfortable growing up here, believes foster parent Anna Vladimirovna Vlasova. Her opinion can be trusted – she has been working as a foster parent at the education department of the Polotsk District Executive Committee since 2006. During this time, she has raised 14 foster children. Her husband, Ivan Sergeevich, an electrician at Naftan OJSC, is always a reliable support.

Currently, their family includes their biological and three foster sons. Recently, three more children joined their friendly company. The older children, Artem and Kirill, are 14 years old, and the youngest, Emilia, is three years old, notes Anna Vladimirovna:

— Family-type children's homes are a professional form of upbringing and care for children left without parental care. For our part, we will do everything possible to ensure their childhood is spent in a friendly family atmosphere, and that the children grow up to be good people and true patriots.
