Abstract

Family is evaluated as a principal source of human capital. Family support with social services is an obligation for local government structures and the non-profit organizations. In this context it is important to analyze the organization of family social services provided locally by the NGOs. The paper aims to explore and evaluate the practices of family social services provided by the non-profit organizations in the northern regions of Albania. Furthermore, it is an objective of this study to analyze the elements related to the organization of these services and to identify problems addressed by the NGOs that operate in the area study. A quantitative research method has been used. The field study was done in the northern region of Albania, including her four Districts, in its main cities: Shkodër, Lezhë, Kukës and Peshkopi.

A main place in the organization of these services occupy children, fundamental human rights, organization of services for individual and family needs, as well as the collaboration with local governments and other civil society organizations.
