This work is dedicated to analyzing the trajectory of the families assisted by the social welfare policy, seeking to know the universe of these social subjects and in the process see the implications of this policy in the lives of users. In this perspective, reflecting on the situation of users of social assistance policy, we must consider the social situations experienced by those subjects that demand for such a policy, situation is to have roots in structural and historical class inequality and its determinations, which are expressed the lack and precariousness of a set of rights such as employment, health, education, housing, transportation, income distribution, among other forms of expression of the social question. Indeed, the social assistance as a public social policy of access to citizenship rights should provide objective conditions for its members break with the stigma of being a disorganized population, depoliticized and available to political maneuvers, how often and are traditionally treated these guys social. Therefore, we conducted a study on the categories that have helped us understand our object and a field of research that allowed us to analyze the trajectory of eight (8) families who are in extreme poverty and are assisted by the Social Assistance Reference Center (CRAS) in the municipality of Lima Duarte (MG). Through research, we found that users' access to care policy was ruled up and today is guided by quality "removed" by poverty and the denial of rights to subject condition. Various denominations were incorporated into the population that access to these services, the main adjectives those who devalue and subalternizam users and remove the citizen condition. The results also showed the importance of knowing those assisted by social policies, so that we can actually understand that users of these policies are citizens and subjects of rights, and for that, they need to participate in public management, have a voice, and a treatment time careful with their social needs.
