OF ALBANIA
Tirana 29 April 2004 – The Children's Human Rights Centre of
Albania - CRCA, the major child rights organisation in Albania, announced
today the establishment of the very first professional help-line for
children in Albania. The centre called "Tirana Child Helpline"
and will be open officially in early May 2005. The centre will combine
a 24 hour phone service to children with a multi-disciplinary team
of child abuse experts of doctors, lawyers, psychologists and social
workers, which will serve daily to children who come to visit the
centre. Tirana Child Helpline at the first year of the activity will
cover 1/3 of all children in Albania, while during the second and
third year the phone service will become national.
"At the present CRCA is negotiating with relevant authorities
for a tall-free number - said Altin Hazizaj, Director of CRCA - and
by early May the Tirana Child Helpline will open its doors to children
and child abuse experts in the country. CRCA has always been the major
organisation dealing with child abuse issue in Albania, and this new
service just shows our commitment to children and the Albanian public."
Meanwhile child friendly offices are just at the final stages of
design. The Centre will also serve to a wider audience of parents,
NGO's, Government, since part of the programme is also the policy
and legislative change, training on child abuse and capacity building
for the Government and NGO's. Meanwhile a new team of CRCA experts
is dealing with the publicity and awareness materials of the Tirana
Child Helpline.
