Active childhood
A girl was born in a simple family: father is a builder, mother of Anna Yurievna Kuznetsova - Tatiana Bulaeva, engineer.

Family protection

Following the fund organized a shelter for women who, for one reason or another, found themselves without housing. At the same time, Pokrov specialists began raising funds for the treatment of children with serious illnesses and all possible assistance to children from dysfunctional and poor families. Also, the organization's employees successfully found new parents for abandoned children.
This work was also noticed, and in 2016 the foundation 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 life situations.
And youth
In 2001, Anna Yuryevna initiated the opening of the festival-competition of social youth projects "My choice is life and he alth." As part of a nationwide project, dozens of events were held to improve the quality of life of young Russians in all regions of the country.

And by the beginning of September 2016, she was appointed Commissioner for Children's Rights under the President and included in the working group to develop proposals for 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 Coordinating Council responsible for the implementation of the National Action Strategy for Children.
The previous experience of working in public organizations and interaction with employees of the Presidential Administration, members of the Public Chamber and human rights activists, according to the Ombudsman herself, will be very useful in her activities at a new workplace.
The Pokrov Foundation, which is headed by the Ombudsman, has been appointed the operator for the distribution of presidential grants supporting NGOs this year by presidential decree. And this is nothing less than 420 million rubles.
An interesting undertaking
At a new stage in her biography, Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova, together with the Russian Agency for Legal and Judicial Information (RAPSI), held her first Internet conference.

The answers were posted on the RAPSI website and official pages on social networks. Commissioner for Children's Rights.
Fight against pedophilia
The new ombudsman is a tough and active supporter of the fight against pedophilia. In December last year, she proposed the creation of a unified register of pedophiles in order to prevent their admission to organizations working with children. And already in the spring of this year, in connection with the growth of crimes against sexual integrity, she initiated a proposal for life-long administrative control over pedophiles.
Resonant case
Following a 2017 press conference, the president instructed the new children's 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 no such violations were officially registered. To which 75 Russian parent organizations expressed their outrage. And they even wrote an open letter to Vladimir Putin saying that the public doubted the objectivity of the data presented by Kuznetsova.
Private life
Anna met her future husband, by the way, an IT specialist, in church. At that time, he was a graduate student at the local state technological university.
A little later, Alexei Kuznetsov took the priesthood and began conducting services in the Church of the Resurrection of Christ in one of the villages of the Tambov region.
The appointment of Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova as Commissioner for Children's Rights provoked the relocation of the entire large family to the capital. BUTit's nothing less than two adults and six children.
Special theme
The decision was made mutually. Because it was unacceptable to separate. Therefore, the sons Lev, Timofey, Nikolai and Ivan, as well as the daughters Daria and Maria, moved to Moscow with their parents.
Ombudsman has recently been often accused of not talking much about her family. To which she regularly invites everyone who is interested in her personal blog.
In addition, before the start of the school year, articles about the children of Anna Yuryevna Kuznetsova began to appear in the media. And especially about Vanya - this September he went to first grade. Now there are three schoolchildren in the family.
All children of the Ombudsman love sports, and the elders are passionate about music. Today, according to the mother of many children, a small ensemble has formed in the house: a guitar, an accordion and a flute.
The eldest daughter Maria Anna Yurievna Kuznetsova is fond of historical sciences and biology. And Vanya will most likely love math.
A mother of many children believes that the help of parents in the learning process is, of course, important, but the attention and time that they spend with their children is much more valuable. Anna also firmly believes that you need to absorb everything that is taught in school. Of course, not everything can come in handy, but this knowledge will help you determine your goal in life. In general, the school teaches you to win and accept the bitterness of defeat, and also gives you the opportunity to know your potential.
Rare moments of relaxation
Their new Ombudsman conducts,doing church floristry. Anna Yuryevna really loves to create flower arrangements for the festive decoration of the temple.
Post scriptum
Public opinion on the new children's ombudsman is somewhat divided. For example, heated debates are caused by a statement (which, by the way, Kuznetsova already refuses today) about Anna Yuryevna's commitment to a controversial anti-scientific theory - theogony. She insists that every sexual partner of a woman leaves "genetic memory" in her cells, which can have a negative impact on subsequent children.
