Centro de Acolhimento e Envolvimento para Pessoas em Situação de Rua em Campo Grande, MS

Abstract

The present study focuses on the issue of homeless people in the global, national and state panorama, highlighting the matrix of the problem, its invisibility before the State and Government agencies that should guarantee the right to equality for every citizen, regardless of class, color and ethnicity. The methodological procedures of the work were based on theoretical foundations, with contributions coming from bibliographical references related to the topic, urban readings, surveys on the implementation site and interviews with those responsible for assistence centers in the city of Campo Grande, MS. As a result, the Shelter and Engagement Center designed for homeless people with the aim of addressing this problem in the city. The building of the center seeks to house activities that can minimally restore human dignity, changing the status of abandonment and making it possible to generate opportunities for the people who use it. Therefore, the spaces were designed to seek social reintegration and individual autonomy through professional courses, physical and mental health care, and minimum housing conditions.
