Abstract

Abstract In this article, we discussed the knowledge, ethical positions and practical experiences that undergraduate Psychology courses could offer to prepare its students to work at the Sistema Único de Assistência Social (SUAS) [Unified Social Assistance System]. To support this discussion, we did a literature review on the subject, interviewed professionals who work at this field and reviewed the material we produced during the years we have worked as professors and internship supervisors. Based on the idea that there is a big gap between the education offered and the daily work at SUAS, we defend the need of another education model, capable of offering elements that help young psychologists develop creative and inventive practices which empower local knowledge and respect the community’s demands and potentialities.
