Popis:	The present paper investigates the reality of services and quality of life of orphans, identifies the relationship between both variables, and proposes a program to improve the quality of life among the orphans at social care homes. The author developed and applied a questionnaire of the reality of services provided and a scale of quality of life to (100) orphans at social care homes in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The results showed low levels of services and quality of life among the orphans at social care homes. There was a positive correlation between those services and the quality of life among orphans. The paper recommends the adoption of the proposed program by decision-makers and specialists in the care and rehabilitation of the orphans to improve their quality of life. Moreover, the program should be an integral part of rehabilitation and education programs delivered to the orphans in the future.
