A realistic, free of bias image of a supported person seems to be an essential condition that must be met by anyone who wants to help other people. Clients of social assistance services usually come from communities exposed in a particular way to discrimination and negative schematization of their image.}, abstract={The research focused on four groups of so called "difficult clients", i.e. alcoholics, drug addicts, homeless and mentally ill people. The respondents (social workers and students) could choose five adjectives describing the profile of each category of clients. A common feature of personal profiles of clients of social assistance services appears to be the dominance of highly stigmatizing pejorative qualities and small variation of the image in the group of social workers and students. The image of an alcoholic or a drug addict seems to be the most negative while the most neutral one is the image of a homeless person.}, type={artykuł}, title={Cechy klientów pomocy społecznej w opiniach studentów i pracowników socjalnych - komunikat z badań = Clients of social assistance services perceived by students and social workers - research results}, keywords={pomoc społeczna, alkoholizm, narkomania, bezdomność, chorzy psychicznie, studenci, pracownicy socjalni}, }
