A inserção do CRAS no território: uma reflexão sobre o trabalho em rede

Abstract

The elaboration of TCC linked to the internship experience enhances the theoretical construction geared to the professional daily life. As a theoretical-practical reflection it is sought to discuss the network by inserting CRAS in the territory. The intervention project was developed at CRAS East in Santa Maria in the context of restructuring with changes in location, management model and professional team. With the purpose of contributing to this process, comprising intersectoriality and territoriality as the structuring axes of SUAS, it was carried out through visits, articulation with institutions located in the territory of comprehensiveness of CRAS. However, a reflection on the contradictions and potentialities of networking and territoriality also implies a resumption of the social assistance trajectory, historically recognized as "non-political", permeated by assistance and focusing. Social assistance is contradictorily conceived as state action on the social issue and a reflection of the struggles of the working class. It also requires an analysis of the work processes of the Social Service and a specific panorama on the work of the social worker in CRAS Leste, in view of the precariousness, overloading and judicialization of care, factors that had an impact on the intervention project. From the analysis of institutional visits conducted, guided by the dialectical-critical method, the categories network and territory will be highlighted. The limits of the network work and its contribution to the Social Work are questioned. The meaning of territoriality is questioned through socio-spatial segregation and the contribution of these two axes of SUAS to the strengthening of social assistance as a policy and as a right.
