In the framework of cooperation with the State Social Service and in function of the social use of confiscated assets, the Agency for the Administration of Sequestered and Confiscated Assets (AAPSK) has continued the distribution of material aid to social care institutions in the country.
Four centers – “Kamëz Violence Center”, “Tjetër Vizion” in Elbasan, “Vatra Center” in Vlora and “Shtëpia e Fëmijës Shkodër” – have been supported with clothing, electronic devices, cosmetic products and other materials necessary to improve the conditions of care for women, children and young people in need.
This initiative is part of the policy of social use of confiscated assets, in accordance with European practices that aim to return illegally obtained assets to serve the community, and is carried out in implementation of the decision of the Inter-institutional Committee for Measures against Organized Crime.
The Chief Administrator of AAPSK, Ms. Risena Xhaja, stated that social use turns confiscated property into value for society:
“This is one of the moments where justice and solidarity meet in practice. Confiscated property, previously a symbol of illegality, is today becoming a means of support for people in need. This is the essence of social use – the return of illegal property to public service and value for the community,” – stated Ms. Xhaja.
Meanwhile, the Director of the State Social Service, Ms. Reme Xholi, emphasized that the model of cooperation with AAPSK is being translated every day more and more into concrete assistance for citizens:
“This cooperation with AAPSK is a clear example of how institutions can combine resources and mission to really come to the aid of vulnerable categories. The donated materials will directly help our social centers in providing more dignified services to women, children and young people in need,” – stated Ms. Xholi.
In addition, AAPSK has announced that it will expand cooperation with the network of social centers through joint projects with institutional and international partners, with the aim of turning any confiscated property into an asset for society.
