Abstract:
The article deals with the complicated process of integration into the
educational space of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in persons with
disabilities. The necessity is substantiated, in the current conditions of
development of the country, research of psychological support of the person
and processes of social and psychological adaptation, which reflects the level
of its interaction and integration with the community and self-determination
in it, the level of realization of internal opportunities of a person and his
personal potential in socially significant activity, in ability, while preserving
oneself as a person, to interact with the surrounding society under specific
conditions of existence. It is noted that joining the RCC is a turning point in
the life of people with disabilities. The conditions of integrated training, on
the one hand, require the student to do some work, and on the other hand,
they offer more opportunities for self-realization. An important issue that
arises when students with disabilities are interacting with teachers,
psychologists, peers, is the issue of psychological assistance. The term
"psychological help" reflects a certain reality, a certain psychosocial practice,
the field of activity in which there is a set of issues, difficulties and problems
that belong to the mental life of man. An important task of psychological
help is to provide emotional, semantic and existential support to a person in
difficult situations of personal or social life. It has been established that
everyday contacts with a person with disabilities in development contribute
to expanding the social experience of ordinary students. Given a properly
constructed pedagogical situation, this experience can become the basis for
the true personal growth of people with disabilities.
