A importância da articulação em rede no enfrentamento à violência infantojuvenil

Abstract

The Network to Combat Violence against Children and Adolescents was established in Itapetininga in 2010, with the intention of articulating the responsible bodies in the prevention and combat of this kind of occurrence in the municipality, being regulated by the municipal law nº 6,167 of November 18, 2016, which contributed to the creation of a flow of information among the Municipal Secretariats of Social Promotion, Health and Education, establishing a system of notifications on cases of violence. Other partners are part of the network and the articulation between all still presents some flaws that can harm the service to the victims. With this work, we outline the work of this network in Itapetininga, achieved achievements and aspects that deserve attention so that it becomes even more effective. We used a questionnaire that was answered by the Network Coordinator, representative of the Secretariat of Social Promotion, Cristina Sayuri Akiyoshi Dias Batista. It was found that the networking in order to cope with infantile-juvenile violence in Itapetininga allowed to improve data regarding this type of occurrence in the municipality, but that communication among the participating organs of the network still needs to be more effective.
