Description
Families with children living in Narva City in North-Eastern often face difficulties in obtaining services and assistance from local government. There is little cooperation between organisations and institutions responsible for the well-being of families with children and flaws in information flow. The aim of the project is to launch a cross-sectoral cooperation network dealing with children and families in Narva, which will bring together organisations operating in the social, health and educational fields from both the public sector and civic associations and will promote the well-being of children and families in Narva. In the course of the project, organisations whose main target group is children and families will be mapped in Narva and the necessary information guide will be compiled from the collected data in electronic form on the website of MTÜ Sotsiaaltöö Arenduskeskus. Information about the network will be shared by all members of the network in the future. In the course of mapping, potential members of the network are identified, everyone''s knowledge of network-related topics is harmonized, teamwork training is carried out and a framework agreement for network cooperation is drawn up to ensure the systematic nature of joint activities. The final beneficiaries of the project and children and their families living in Narva City. In establishing the co-operation network, the Latvian Gulbene City Government and the representative offices of civic associations in Kaunas, Lithuania will be involved in sharing experiences.
