Abstract
The article considers the directions of social work with military families during the great Patriotic war. Archived sources and ego-documents introduced into scientific circulation allow us to analyze this problem from different sides. It is noted that assistance to this category of population was provided in several ways. First of all, this is state support and patronage, which allowed us to provide targeted assistance in the form of food and manufactured goods parcels, housing benefits, placement of children in kindergartens and schools, and preferential employment rights. Along with the state, the families of combatants were supported by public organizations, trade unions, etc. The Timur movement has also become a form of social assistance for this category of population. In regional historiography, little attention is paid to the problem of adaptation of war invalids in the conditions of the rear region, which also turned out to be another poorly protected layer of Soviet society. State assistance consisted not only in awarding disability pensions, but also in organizing retraining with further employment, and solving the housing problem. For the first time, the article raises the issue of providing assistance to children of military personnel, including orphans. The scope of the measures that the state has provided to support children is analyzed. Of great scientific interest is the analysis of ego documents-complaints, statements, letters, which give an idea of the problems faced by military families in everyday life. It is concluded that paternalistic social policy was closely intertwined with public assistance from voluntary organizations, youth unions and ordinary citizens of the Republic.
