Mobile crisis center for providing assistance to families and protecting the rights of victims of domestic abuse and violence

The family as a social group requires enhanced legal and social protection. The relationship between crime and the dysfunction of the family institution is evident in the mechanism of an individual’s unlawful behavior. The global changes in the political, military, economic, social, and other spheres of the Russian state’s activities, which are taking place in the 2020s, inevitably affect not only the socio-economic situation of society but also its spiritual and moral state, which will be directly correlated with the dynamics of crime. The most significant criminological problems in this context are the significant increase in the number of low-income families; the growing number of children left without parental care; the decline in the social role of the family in society and its educational potential; the rise in conflict in interpersonal relationships; and the erosion of established family values.
