Providing housing for orphans is one of the most pressing problems of modern Russian society. The purpose of the article is to analyze the key problems of providing housing for orphans and children left without parental care, to study the social consequences of violation of their housing rights. The analysis of statistical data illustrates a number of significant problems in the implementation of state policy aimed at ensuring the housing rights of orphans. The key one is the insufficient level of funding, which does not allow regional authorities to fulfill their obligations in a timely manner and in full. The following problems in the field of providing housing to orphans were highlighted: dysfunction of interagency interaction, legal gaps, lack of conditions for registering graduates of residential institutions at the place of residence, narrowing social support, medical care, existing practices of providing housing of unsatisfactory quality, in rural settlements with remote access, low level of infrastructure development, limited conditions for finding a job.
