Sažetak
In the work with the victims of war in the war period and period after the war two types of organisations have been active: governmental (state) and non-governmental. Governmental institutions such as centres for social care, schools and health institutions played an important part in the provision of material and psychological help and support, as well as help in the social reconstruction of the community. Experts in these institutions were forced to master a large number of new and unknown tasks. However, the war resulted in a series of initiatives of citizens who participated in various forms of help. Many of them realised programmes of providing psychosocial help within a project or within non-governmental organisations. In the circumstances of exile or displacement, the need for help and support which integrates various levels of action – individual, family and community, as well as various groups of helpers – school, centre for social care, non-governmental organisation imposed itself. The central part of that is the connection of non-governmental organisations with governmental institutions. The paper provides an example of such a co-operation in the work with abused children. Emphasising that the primary role of both governmental and non-governmental helpers is to help the victim and not to promote the organisation itself, some possibilities of the improvement of co-operation between governmental and non-governmental institutions and of solving the current difficulties faced by the users of similar programmes are mentioned.
