26 October 2010

Following the meeting held in July 2010 between representatives of the Probation Service Office and three partnership organisations (Aksion Plus, Refraction Association, and Shelter for Abused Women) in the framework of the project "Network of Community Services for Alternative Sentence", a seminar took place in the city of Fier on 21st September 2010.

This project financed by the European Commission aims to support the Albanian Probation Service Office for the implementation of alternative sanctions against drug offenders, including through community-based treatment programme, and to promote and enhance constructive partnerships between the Probation Service Office and the community.

This particular seminar focused on the services provided by the partnership organisations to the project, and aimed to foster cooperative relationships with the Probation Service Office with regards to alternative sentencing.
