Abstract

in the article, the authors consider the main directions of economic and social protection of persons with disabilities (disabled people, children), analyze the problems of socio-economic rehabilitation of low-mobility groups of the population, children, and suggest the main directions for optimizing economic policy in the field of support for particularly vulnerable citizens in difficult economic realities. Based on General theoretical methods of analysis and synthesis, generalization, citation, and axiomatic method, the authors conclude that if until now law enforcement practice has focused only on the principle of the best interests of the child, then in the new economic realities, the principle and the right of children to participate in decision-making on all issues that affect them should be of crucial importance. In this regard, the authors believe that in the sphere of social and economic protection of the rights of socially vulnerable citizens at the present stage, it is necessary to increase the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies in the field of prevention and suppression of violations of economic and social rights of the studied category of citizens, including the right to education, rehabilitation, economic support, which requires improvement of legal mechanisms that provide for a system of measures for the implementation of medical, vocational rehabilitation, secondary and higher professional education.
