In particular, three lines of intervention, complementary to each other, have been designed: <strong>prevention<\/strong>, <strong>law enforcement<\/strong>, and <strong>solidarity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The commissioner relied on the intensive cooperation with local anti-racket and anti-usury associations, which have been offering support and assistance to victims since the early 1990s.<\/p>\n<p>In this delicate time of economic hardship, the joint role and commitment of institutions and associations will be even more valuable in their work to convince &#8220;that being on the side of the state pays off,&#8221; Prefect Cagliostro concluded in the report.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.interno.gov.it\/it\/notizie\/antiracket-e-antiusura-nel-2020-assegnati-vittime-oltre-23-milioni?fbclid=IwAR1QO9uKZllbs9KjzO2BQ-Du6ZF92Y5ko3qNC5oyio-k18qdX9JQ8HgEqGA\">Read the full comuicato here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are 23.2 million euros (+29.6 percent over 2019) in funds allocated in 2020 to victims of extortion and usury, including about 3.7 million in the last quarter.
