Moldova has committed to using the returned funds to support people with disability. According to Minister Spatari, “The funds will be used to employ 566 personal assistants for people with severe disabilities, in addition to almost 6,000 personal assistants employed today.” Keystone Moldova, a long-time leader developing disability policies, programs, and community supports in the country, will monitor and evaluate the expenditures as outlined in the MoU.
“I am proud to see Keystone Moldova named for this important role. The people of Moldova can be confident that the oversight will be professional and the needs of people with disability will remain in the forefront,” said Charles Hooker, President and CEO of KHS. “Our commitment to building a better, more inclusive world transcends borders.”
