Cartilha Educativa: A Psicologia na Assistência Social: um campo de saberes sobre a atuação do psicólogo na área

Abstract

This booklet aims to clarify in a simpler, didactic and accessible way the role of the psychologist within the area of social assistance, as well as the challenges he may face during his work. With this, we seek to help in the formation of a more prepared and qualified professional to face a realistic scenario, pointing out what awaits them when working in this context. Taking into account the importance of this area and the role of the psychologist within it, the booklet also seeks to encourage reflections on the role of the psychologist as an agent of social transformation and his relationship with the community.
