General Information

The activities of the FOKUS were initiated in 1997 by a group of professionals who decided to work together on helping the children with intellectual and physical disabilities (including mental health) in Albania. FOKUS’ priorities are set by its own programs: rehabilitation of children as victims of domestic violence, human trafficking and/or in street situations, through medical and psychological services, education and awareness dedicated to frontline practitioners; advocacy for social changes; participation in decision making; gender equality; accountability; volunteerism
