The article found out that among the most popular ways of forming the legal ideology of Ukrainian society, which are used by public organizations and are extremely significant in military conditions, the following should be singled out: volunteer and charitable activities, educational and scientific work, establishing international relations, providing support socially vulnerable citizens, internally displaced persons, victims of military operations, and military personnel and their families.

One of the obligations of the state in relation to public organizations is the regulatory and legal support of their activities and interaction with public authorities, in particular, the adoption of special laws that determine their legal status.
