Kuznetsova Anna Yuryevna - Commissioner for the Rights of the Child: photo, biography

Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova is the founder of many charitable and public organizations and the children's ombudsman. In September last year, she replaced Pavel Astakhov at this post. What to expect from the new Commissioner for Children's Rights?

Active childhood

A girl was born in a simple family: father - builder, mother of Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova - Tatyana Bulaeva, engineer. In school years, teachers often entrusted Anna with leadership positions, encouraging her energy and initiative. But, after graduating from school, she entered the pedagogical lyceum. After him, she continued her education at the State Pedagogical Institute. V. G. Belinsky specialty "psychologist-teacher."

In 2005, Anna Yurievna received the second highest - theological.

The beginning of public activity

One of the first organizations established by Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova is Blagovest. With the participation of the government of the Penza region, the fund oversees the comprehensive program "Life is a sacred gift", aimed at preventing medical termination of pregnancy.

There were many events during its course, and all of them were devoted to the protection of Russian traditional family values and the reduction in the number of abortions.

For this work in 2012, Anna Yuryevna received an award in the nomination “Interaction” at the III International Festival on Social Technologies “For Life” and a prize of audience sympathy.

Family protection

Two years later, with the active participation of Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova, the Pokrov Foundation began its work on a non-profit basis. His activities are aimed at supporting motherhood, childhood and family. In the first months, the organization’s specialists provided only moral assistance. But soon it became possible to provide real assistance in the form of necessary medicines and products to needy families. The telephone helpline did not keep itself waiting.

Following this, the foundation organized a shelter for women who, for one reason or another, found themselves without housing. At the same time, the specialists of Pokrov began to raise funds for the treatment of children with serious illnesses and to provide adequate assistance to children from dysfunctional and poor families. Also, employees of the organization successfully found new parents for abandoned children.

This work was also noticed, and in 2016 the fund received a presidential grant of 600, 000 rubles.

While working at Pokrov Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova (see photo in the article) systematically conducted online seminars, most of which she devoted to helping pregnant women in difficult situations.

And youth

In 2001, Anna Yuryevna initiated the opening of the festival-contest of social youth projects "My choice is life and health." As part of the project of an all-Russian scale, dozens of events were held to improve the quality of life of young Russians in all regions of the country. Including the introduction of the rules of a healthy lifestyle in the youth environment and the dissemination of the world's best educational methods.

First steps in politics

Within two years, Anna managed to become a member of the Public Chamber of the Penza Region, after which she was elected the head of one of the city representative offices of the All-Russian Popular Front. The beginning of this position was a thorough inspection of maternity hospitals and the general system of obstetric care. As well as protecting the rights of persons with disabilities (primarily children) in order to exercise their right to education and counteracting, as Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova believed, the illegal abolition of disability groups.

At the same time, she was offered to take the post of chairman of the regional branch of the All-Russian movement "Mother of Russia" and become the head of the commission in the Public Chamber of Penza, dealing with interfaith interaction and charity.

In 2015, the future Ombudsman was an active member of the only emerging Association of Family Protection Organizations.

Today

At the end of last spring, Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova won, and significantly outperforming her rivals, the preliminary vote in the "United Russia" in the region and became a member of the election list in the upcoming elections to the State Duma.

And by the beginning of September 2016, she was appointed Commissioner for Children's Rights under the President and was brought into the working group to develop proposals on additional levers for regulating the activities of socially-oriented NGOs.

In October of the same year, on the recommendation of Valentina Matvienko, Anna Yuryevna was admitted to the Coordination Council, which implements the National Strategy for Children.

The experience of working in public organizations and interaction with employees of the Presidential Administration, members of the Public Chamber and human rights defenders, the ombudsman herself, will be very useful in her work at the new workplace.

The Pokrov Foundation, which is led by the Ombudsman, was appointed the operator of the distribution of presidential grants supporting NGOs this year by presidential decree. And this is neither more nor less - 420 million rubles.

Interesting undertaking

At a new round in her biography, Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova, together with the Russian Agency for Legal and Judicial Information (RAPSI), held its first Internet conference. It was dedicated to the results of the year of work as a children's ombudsman. For five days, the agency’s editors, as well as groups on VKontakte and Facebook social networks, received questions about violated children's rights. The answers were posted on the RAPSI website and on the official pages on the social networks of the Commissioner for Children's Rights.

The fight against pedophilia

The new Ombudsman is a tough and active supporter of the fight against pedophilia. In December last year, she proposed creating a unified register of pedophiles to prevent their admission to organizations working with children. And in the spring of this year, in connection with the growth of crimes against sexual integrity, she initiated a proposal for lifelong administrative control of pedophiles.

Resonance business

Following the results of the 2017 press conference, the president instructed the new child rights attorney and the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection to study and analyze the practice of removing children from the point of view of unlawful interference in the family. Six months later, the media, according to Kuznetsova, reported that such violations were not officially registered. To which 75 Russian parent organizations expressed strong outrage. And they even wrote an open letter to Vladimir Putin, in which they said that the public doubts the objectivity of the data provided by Kuznetsova.

Personal life

With her future spouse, by the way, an IT specialist, Anna met in the temple. At that time, he was a graduate student at the local state technological university.

A little later, Alexei Kuznetsov took the priesthood and began to conduct services in the Church of the Resurrection of Christ in one of the villages of the Tambov region.

The appointment of Kuznetsova Anna Yuryevna as the Commissioner for the Rights of the Child provoked the move of the whole large family to the capital. And this is no less than two adults and six children.

Special theme

The decision was made mutually. For separation was unacceptable. Therefore, the sons Leo, Timothy, Nikolai and Ivan, as well as the daughters Daria and Maria with their parents moved to Moscow.

The Ombudsman has recently been often accused of not telling much about her family. To which she regularly invites everyone interested in a personal blog.

In addition, before the start of the school year, articles began to appear in the media about the children of Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova. And especially about Van - he went to first grade this September. Now there are three schoolchildren in the family.

All children of the Ombudsman love sports, while older ones are passionately interested in music. Today, according to the mother of many children, a small ensemble formed in the house: a guitar, an accordion and a flute.

The eldest daughter, Maria Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova, is fond of historical sciences and biology. And Vanya, most likely, will love mathematics.

A mother with many children believes that the help of parents in the learning process is, of course, important, but the attention and time they spend with the children is much more valuable. Even Anna is firmly convinced that it is necessary to absorb everything that is taught in school. Of course, not everything can be useful, but on the other hand, this knowledge will help determine the purpose in life. In general, the school teaches to win and accept the bitterness of defeat, and also provides an opportunity to learn about your potential.
