Abstract

This article seeks to understand the existing interfaces between psychology training and work in public social assistance policies, especially with regard to the professionals' appropriation of the content expressed in the technical guidelines pertinent to such policy. To this end, a selection was made based on bibliographical research on Reference Centers for Social Assistance (CRAS), an important social facility whose responsibility is to ensure that users enter the basic social protection network of the Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS). ), thus realizing the right to an unrestricted and universal social assistance network proposed in the Constitutional Charter of 1988. In this sense, as guiding objectives we had: to describe the proposal of professional performance in the CRAS present in the reference documents of social assistance; and make a historical overview of psychology in Brazil. In this sense, a bibliographic investigation was carried out on the paths of psychology in Brazil and, in general, in Latin America, in addition to relevant aspects of social public policies and, in particular, those of social assistance.
