Social Support Network: Prospects for Displaced Families in Porto Alegre/Red de Apoyo Social: Perspectivas de Familias Desplazadas en Porto Alegre/Rede de Apoio Social: Perspectives de Familias Deslocadas em Porto Alegre

The forced displacement of people is a social phenomenon that has been increasing in different parts of the world. The article seeks to give visibility to the stories of families who have gone through different situations of forced displacement, as well as to analyze the perception of received support during and after this process. We conducted a qualitative descriptive approach, where interviews were done and analyzed by discourse analysis. Social support has proved relevant in the displacement and relocation of families, even for more humanized and unstable processes, which not only give priority to economic and structural benefits, but that the conform spaces for dialogue, mediation and monitoring by workers and / or entities entrusted by families.
