Ways to increase the resilience of parents of children with special educational needs by the government

Abstract

The article examines the psychological characteristics of resilience in parents of preschool children with special educational needs. Moreover, the text delineates the measures that the state has implemented to provide assistance to these mothers. A pilot study is conducted using S. Madi's methodology to measure the resilience of mothers who face many life difficulties. The author posits that resilience is a pivotal factor in providing support to mothers of children with special educational needs. According to S. Madi's theory, this manifests in three aspects: involvement in life, control, and a willingness to take risks. The author provides a detailed exposition of the features of the organisation of psychological services for the purpose of implementing inclusive education in a state-run specialised kindergarten. The article presents the findings of a research study that employed S. Madi's methodology and proposes strategies to enhance the resilience of parents of children with special educational needs, as perceived by the state administration.
