The objective of this research was to analyze the relationship and participation of the family in the process of re-socialization of delinquent adolescents. The focus was qualitative, because it was about understanding the perspective of the participants. The population was conformed by the families of adolescent offenders who go through the re-socialization process in the department of La Guajira. The results show that the families do not get involved or inquire about the performance, behavior and attitudes of the young people, so it is concluded that one of the strategies to implement in the institutes is to reinforce the school project for parents that generates alternative links and participation of the family in the process of re-socialization of the adolescent.
