As partners, we selected five (05) young people incarcerated in the Regional Recovery Center Brief (C.R.R.B) which also functions as Penitentiary Unit Marajó Region (U.P.R.M). Data were obtained through analysis of documents and the interview with semi-structured script. The survey results showed that young people bring similar stories and recollections about their lives.
