EFETIVIDADE DA POLÍTICA PÚBLICA DA POP RUA: ESTUDO DE CASO DO CENTRO POP DE CORUMBÁ/MS

Abstract

This article investigates the effectiveness of public policy for the homeless population in Corumbá/MS, highlighting the role of the Centro POP as a social facility in addressing the structural inequalities intensified by the capitalist system and the social reintegration of these individuals. Based on a critical analysis, the study seeks to understand how the National Policy for the Homeless Population, established by Decree No. 7,053/2009, is applied in the local context and examines the socioeconomic profile of those assisted, revealing the complexities of their living conditions. Based on a literature review and data collected at the Centro POP, the results indicate that, although it provides shelter and basic support, the social facility faces significant limitations in promoting sustainable social reintegration. These findings highlight the need for intersectoral policies and solutions that go beyond emergency support, proposing a more comprehensive approach sensitive to regional particularities. By questioning the capacity of the Centro POP to transform the reality of those assisted, the article reinforces the urgency of strategies that consider the complexity of social exclusion and the construction of real opportunities for full and dignified reintegration.
