Call for Proposals for Projects for Associations of People with Disabilities

Ministry of Family, Veterans’ Affairs and Intergenerational Solidarity published a Call for proposals for Projects of Associations of People with Disabilities. The call is aimed particularly at associations which provide personal assistants of people with the hardest mode and rate of disability in the Republic of Croatia, and will provide financial support from the budget of the Republic of Croatia in the first quarter of the year 2008.

According to the Call, associations of people with disabilities can send their applications for financial support for projects that will provide personal assistants for people with the hardest mode and rate of disability and thus supplement and extend satisfaction of needs of people with disabilities as well as their families. The projects should be ended on 31 August 2008 at the latest. Every association of people with disabilities whose activities contribute to a public good of the Republic of Croatia is entitled to apply, however applications are limited to maximum one project. Should more than one project be applied by an individual association, all applications will be regarded as invalid.

The priority will be given to associations which were given financial support for implementation of projects of introducing personal assistants for people with the hardest mode and rate of disability already in the year 2007. All interested associations have to use special application forms to apply their projects, which could be found on the website of the Ministry of Family, Veterans’ Affairs and Intergenerational Solidarity. Applications should include a detailed description of the project. The deadline for application is 3 January 2008.
