Abstract

This article aims to analyze the social assistance service in the municipality of Itapipoca, Ceará based on the results obtained in the field research, which gathered data collected through participant observation techniques and semi - structured interviews with the Municipal Assistance Policy Social. One of the results of this study was the finding that, formally implemented in 2013 in the city of Itapipoca-Ceará, the social-welfare surveillance service achieved a notable recognition by the professionals that make up the socio-welfare network, especially due to the implementation of fundamental actions for systematization of municipal indicators, despite the acknowledgment of the many challenges still pending for its implementation, among which the most outstanding are the overcoming of the precarious working conditions of this service and the professional pragmatism that persists in the routine of services.
