Abstract. The lack of methodological guidance, incomplete classification of information and recommendations on the possibilities and features of applying social work with deviant adolescents in juvenile affairs units determine the relevance of the study. The article analyzes the contradiction between the existing and desirable state of social work with adolescents of deviant behavior. One of the significant subjects of solving and preventing the problem of adolescent deviation is the Juvenile Affairs Unit, a structural controlling unit of the Internal Affairs system of the Russian Federation, engaged in accounting and education of deviant children and adolescents. PD is a structural element of the modern system of social work with adolescents of deviant behavior and an important subject of social prevention, obliged to stop child crime, and able to identify circumstances that negatively affect the development of a single child, to provide assistance. This subject works with different categories of teenagers — from the «risk group» or those who have committed minor offenses, to convicts. The activities of PD as a subject of social work with adolescents of deviant behavior begin with the identification of problem children and contacting the appropriate authorities or institutions of the system for the prevention of neglect and juvenile delinquency and continue throughout the difficult life situation of a minor. The purpose of the scientific work is to study the directions of social work with deviant adolescents in juvenile affairs units and the possibility of optimizing the practice of social work with deviant adolescents in juvenile affairs units. The authors, using a questionnaire survey of HDPE inspectors, teachers of secondary educational institutions, social protection specialists and members of the Commission on Juvenile Affairs and Protection of Their Rights, revealed that in modern family and demographic policy of Russia, an established system of activities for the prevention of child distress with clearly defined goals and objectives has been defined, but this does not reduce the number of children living in conditions unsuitable for their development, harmful, hindering socialization, development and further advancement in life.
