Abstract

Child protection is a major priority in the social policies of the Republic of Moldova, especially when it comes to supporting children without parental care. A relevant example in this regard is the Professional Parental Assistance Service (PPAS), implemented since the year 2000. This service provides children with a safe and stable family-like environment, significantly contributing to their emotional, social, and educational development. The present study analyzes theeffectiveness of the PPAS in the Ungheni district during the period 2020–2024, highlighting both the progress made and the persistent challenges.
