Título: Contribuições da história oral para o cotidiano de trabalho do/a assistente social Abstract: This dissertation aims to reflect on the use of Oral History methodology, consolidated in qualitative academic research, seeking to understand how this methodology can contribute to the daily work of social workers, with reference to the public policy of social assistance. To achieve this objective, a bibliographic review and qualitative research were carried out, through interviews with social workers who work or have worked in the Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS) and who have used Oral History in their academic trajectories. The work presents the concepts, origins, and different understandings of Oral History, with emphasis on its critical aspect, based on historicaldialectical materialism. The contributions of authors such as E. P. Thompson and Alessandro Portelli are highlighted. In the field of Social Work, the pioneering contribution of Maria Lúcia Martinelli on Oral History in Social Work research is evident. This discussion establishes connections between Oral History and the instrumentality of Social Work, demonstrating how this methodology can qualify and strengthen professional listening, broaden the understanding of demands beyond the immediate, and favor more contextualized interventions. The interviews reveal that the inclusion of Oral History in professional work enhances the welcoming environment, strengthens the protagonism of the subjects, broadens the understanding of the totality of lived situations, and reaffirms the relational dimension of public social assistance policy. On the other hand, the research also highlights significant challenges to the use of this methodology in daily professional practice, such as work overload, lack of time for indepth consultations, precarious structural conditions of services, and the lack of knowledge of Oral History on the part of many professionals. The study also points out differences and convergences between the use of Oral History in academic research and in professional work, highlighting that, despite the distinct purposes and conditions of application, the centrality of listening and the recognition of the singularity of the subjects are common elements Tipo: Dissertação

Título: Mães atípicas: reflexões sobre as dificuldades e desafios do transtorno do espectro autista (TEA) e acesso às políticas no município de São Paulo Abstract: This dissertation analyzes the challenges faced by atypical mothers in accessing rights and public policies, with emphasis on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The study highlights women, mothers, and caregivers who strive to ensure the rights of their children with disabilities and/or differences, particularly in the areas of education, health, and social assistance. It aims to identify the challenges and difficulties experienced by atypical mothers throughout their life trajectories in the post-pandemic context. The research proposes a reflection from the perspective of - caring for the caregiver, questioning which public policies have effectively addressed comprising bibliographic research, documentary analysis, and empirical investigation conducted with five atypical mothers residing in the city of São Paulo. The study addresses anti-ableist struggles, articulated with the performance of different professional categories involved in assisting this population within local territories. The findings reveal the difficulties and challenges faced by atypical mothers in accessing public services linked to education, health, and social assistance policies. The relevance of this study is emphasized in light of the implementation of new services in 2025 aimed at improving responses to the demands of atypical mothers and autism care. Furthermore, the research highlights the maturation of care proposals focused on women, mothers, and caregivers, particularly regarding the - caring for the caregiver approach, a central axis of this work that contributes to the visibility of atypical mothers and the strengthening of public policies that address their specific needs Tipo: Dissertação

Título: "É tudo a gente pela gente": entre a retórica da pátria gentil e a realidade da república jovem Abstract: This thesis analyzes, based on four narrative interviews with young people in institutional care under the República modality—Ares, Hestia, Apollo, and Hecate, all Black, with trajectories marked by expulsions from services and passages through multiple social assistance services— the development of social protection policies aimed at this population, with emphasis on the promotion of autonomy in the transition to adulthood. It examines to what extent institutional care effectively ensures protection or reproduces dynamics of unprotection, particularly in the context of compulsory discharge at the age of 21. Grounded in critical social theory, the study apprehends social totality through the intersections of race, class, gender, sexuality, and territory, understood as constitutive dimensions of class analysis. It adopts a qualitative approach, articulating narrative interviews with documentary analysis of public call notices from five municipalities in the state of São Paulo, as well as key policy frameworks, including the Plano Nacional de Promoção, Proteção e Defesa do Direito de Crianças e Adolescentes à Convivência Familiar e Comunitária (PNCFC 2025), the Portaria Acolher+, and the Censo SUAS 2024. The findings reveal a gap between the institutional discourse of autonomy and everyday practices. The narratives expose concrete demands for housing, continued support, preparation for adult life, and dignity, in contrast to the reality of discharge, marked by abrupt rupture of bonds, absence of transition policies, constant fear of homelessness, and individual responsabilization. As synthesized by Ares (2025), “we learn how to survive, but that does not mean we learn how to live.” The study shows that neoliberal rationality structures public policy by transforming autonomy into a moral duty and discharge into a management of scarcity. It also reveals the persistence of structural violence shaped by racial, gender, and sexual inequalities, including the exclusion of LGBTQIAPN+ youth, evidenced by the absence of trans and travesti individuals in the República settings studied, indicating the expulsion of these bodies from institutional protection arrangements. As an analytical contribution, the thesis proposes the category of the “expanded non-non,” understood as the structural and simultaneous denial of rights, recognition, and institutional support faced by young people leaving care. It also identifies the emergence of Repúblicas Privadas, which extend permanence up to the age of 23, highlighting state absence and the transfer of care responsibilities to civil society. The thesis concludes with nine operational propositions, developed from the interviews and document analysis, including the institutionalization of a youth moratorium—extending permanence up to age 24 in the República Jovem—and the strengthening of youth participation in policy-making processes. It argues that the effective implementation of public policies requires not only normative adjustments but also a transformation of state rationality, from managing absences to guaranteeing rights, reaffirming the ethical-political commitment of Social Work to human rights and social emancipation Tipo: Tese

Título: O processo de desmaternização compulsória de mulheres em situação de rua que consomem substâncias psicoativas: um olhar para os danos à sua saúde Abstract: This dissertation is based on the assumption that the right to mothering is not equal for all women, given the increasing removal of babies by the State from women experiencing homelessness who use drugs. Objective: To identify the harm to women’s health suffered by women who became mothers while living on the streets and were victims of compulsory demothering due to drug use. Materials and Methods: The research is grounded historical-dialectical materialism and was conducted through documentary research based on documents and data from secondary sources. In addition, using oral history, an interview was carried out with a woman who went through this process, in order to support the proposed denunciation of state violence against poor bodies, which are also predominantly Black. Results: The impacts on these women’s health were analyzed, including a cycle of repeated pregnancies in an attempt to remain with other babies; low adherence to prenatal care and, therefore, inadequate health follow-up; unsafe childbirths occurring on the streets; psychological trauma resulting from early separation; fragility of bonds with services; and resumption of drug use. Discussion: It is understood that women are socially assigned the role of mother, a perspective that was strengthened from the eighteenth century onward with the emergence of capitalism, as the State began to regard the mother–baby dyad as a monetary asset of significant value. However, this reality does not extend to all women, which has led to a distortion of the principle of the child’s best interests and to an excessive increase in institutional placements. A lack of public policies that value and support mothers is observed, considering family coexistence as a fundamental right, as provided for in legal documents Tipo: Dissertação
