The President of the Republic Zoran Milanovi\u0107 received a delegation from the Krijesnica Association today. This association supports children and families facing malignant diseases, aiming to empower them and provide essential assistance during treatment. Founded in 2000, the Krijesnica Association emerged from an initiative of parents whose children were treated for malignant diseases, alongside medical staff who cared for these children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the meeting, the delegation briefed President Milanovi\u0107 on the association\u2019s activities. They highlighted that the members primarily consist of parents whose children are undergoing treatment at oncology departments in Croatia, parents whose children have successfully completed treatment, and those who have lost a child to a malignant disease. Additionally, the association includes young people who have undergone treatment for malignant diseases and numerous experts from various fields, all contributing to the support and success of the association\u2019s work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the Association\u2019s ten employees, about a hundred volunteers, mostly students, assist children and parents. According to Mirela Stani\u0107 Popovi\u0107, the Executive Director, the association provides assistance to around 100 families annually. Their work is funded through donations from individuals and organizations, as well as projects financed by the state budget and European funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the meeting, the vision of the association was discussed, emphasizing a society where families of children with malignant diseases have equal access to all relevant systems that meet their individual needs. The association\u2019s programmes aim to support children treated at all national reference centres for paediatric tumours. However, with headquarters in Zagreb, most activities are concentrated in the wider Zagreb area. They also noted that Krijesnica is one of the few associations providing physical presence and support in both Zagreb hospitals, Children’s hospital Zagreb and University Hospital Centre Zagreb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to Executive Director Mirela Stani\u0107 Popovi\u0107, the delegation of the Krijesnica Association included Jelena \u010ce\u0161ljar, a consultant for patients\u2019 rights; Dubravka Vidovi\u0107, a coordinator of creative workshops for parents and children undergoing treatment; \u017dana Salapi\u0107, a peer support provider for parents; and Lucija Doroti\u0107, a peer support provider for children and young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Milanovi\u0107 was accompanied by Jadranka \u017darkovi\u0107, Adviser to the President of the Republic for Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
