Zusammenfassung: | In this article, it is presented ethnographic descriptions of a Social Assistance Reference Center (CRAS), from the Universal Social Assistance System (SUAS), with the intuition of understanding gender and sexual performativity within the National Social Assistance Politics (PNAS). The proposal to diminish gender inequalities is highlighted as one of the goals of these politics. SUAS recognizes women as the agents of social protection, especially in the familiar context. The way these politics have been organized, ends up performing feminization, through a "motherhood biopolitics" and it is operated, in a concrete way, in the practices reverberating directly in the subjectivity processes of its users as well as in the configuration of the administration of the familial and social relations. Keywords: CRAS; PNAS; Gender relations; Motherhood; Biopolitics Neste artigo, sao apresentadas descricoes etnograficas de um Centro de Referencia de Assistencia Social (CRAS), equipamento do Sistema Unico de Assistencia Social (SUAS), com o intuito de compreender a performatividade de genero e sexualidade na Politica Nacional de Assistencia Social (PNAS). A proposta de diminuicao das desigualdades de genero e um dos propositos desta politica que reconhece as mulheres como agentes da protecao social, principalmente no contexto familiar. A forma como essas politicas vem se organizando acaba por performatizar as feminizacoes por meio de uma "biopolitica da maternidade" que se operacionaliza, de forma concreta, nas praticas, repercutindo diretamente nos processos de subjetivacao e na configuracao da gestao das relacoes familiares e sociais.
