Currently, the growing number of juvenile delinquency in Uzbekistan (an increase of 4.4 times in 2019-2023, 3,599 cases in 2023) and the increase in the number of dysfunctional families indicate the relevance of the problems associated with parents indifferent to raising children. This scientific work examines the issue of improving the cooperation of prevention inspectors with the mahalla seven in identifying troubled families and applying social prevention measures. The dissertation analyzes the theoretical and legal foundations of the Laws of the Republic of Uzbekistan "On the Prevention of Offenses" (No. ЗРУ-371) and "On the Prevention of Neglect and Offenses among Minors" (No. ЗРУ-255), as well as regulatory documents No. 292 and No. 801. In the analysis of practice, the positive results (anonymous real situations) and shortcomings (bureaucracy, slow information exchange, lack of resources) of the current cooperation system are assessed using the SWOT method. Opportunities for adaptation to Uzbekistan will be considered by comparing the models of juvenile police and public cooperation between Russia and Kazakhstan. Proposals for improving cooperation were put forward in the work: the introduction of information exchange through digital platforms (E-social prevention system) and AI, strengthening joint educational programs, and further development of the KPI system. Implementation of the proposals will increase the effectiveness of crime prevention and strengthen family upbringing.References
